Saw my 22 telly headlights are always on (almost) during day in very bright sunny days also on auto, is that common , never seen that on my Mazda before.

That is not happening in my car. Check whether the sensor is dirty? I’m guessing there is a photo sensor, though I have no idea where to find it.

Sensor for Auto Headlamp is on your dash behind the head unit screen. The little bubbles on your center speaker grill. If you keep stuffed animals or other obstructions on these sensors it will cause them to think it is dark out. Also any windshield tint installed.

Very interesting , I will check on this, I kept like 3 masks on it so it will catch some sun, I remove them and try again.

Great information

Removing the masks from the dashboard helped, thank you for the help.
