Hoping for some info from anyone with a similar experience.

I have a Megane Techno EV60 and we’ve had it for around a week. It’s been running flawlessly until today. Got back to our car after being in a supermarket and immediately on entering the vehicle checks flagged a warning about the automatic lighting. Couldn’t see anything on the windscreen that could affect the camera system, but it is a warm sunny day (26C in the Midlands in the UK).

Is it a glitch in the adaptive lighting regarding the sunny day that could have caused this, or is it likely to be something that has developed at random that genuinely requires me visiting the Dealership?

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I know that the manual mentions extreme weather can confuse the system, so the car deactivates it, so I’m assuming something like this is going on. Luckily it’s long daylight ours just now and the “fault” only affects the adaptive lighting systems, so it’s still fine to drive.

Otherwise, loving the car.

Edited: corrected silly autocorrect text in first sentence.

Just checked it again after being parked on my driveway for a couple of hours. No warning. Think it may have been due to the system being blinded by the sun, rather than heat, as it was ok again when it was over 30C outside.

I’ve contacted the dealership anyway to see if it’s a known glitch, or if they want to check it over. I’ll keep everyone posted.

Hi PDSc0tt and thanks for posting. I had the same problem. Car has been flawless over 10,000 miles. Turning it off and on again had no effect. Parking in shade did the trick. Let us know if dealer had any advice. Cheers!
