Took car to the dealership-reset computer-now day running lamps don't come on when start the car on-they only come on when the car is in drive. The airbag senor is also out. This all occurred at 37000 miles.

2 Headlights problem of the 1998 Oldsmobile Cutlass

Failure Date: 01/01/2000

Daytime running lights are supposed to turn on headlights at dark, my car does that unless the temperature goes below 40 degrees, then the lights won't turn on until the interior warms up. The daytime running lights are on, but no headlights, taillights, or side lights. This problem is not unique to my car. I have seen it happen on pontiac grand ams and buicks also.
