    If they're like my 16.. you can only turn them ON at a stop.
    When you reach about 5-8mph they turn OFF automatically.
    BUT...
    If it's like mine.. because I put amber LEDs in mine bc it's purdy.. once they turn off, just flip the switch OFF/ON again(while moving) and it will illuminate in motion.
    Then you can check it anytime while you're going down the highway u til you turn off the ignition to kill the sequence.

    Xirtam2k the work or utility lights might be over current protected by the SAMCAB and not have a fuse. Look at the SAM wall chart in this link https://www.dtnaecomponents.com/Fre...DateAugust2nd2010AndNewer/SAMWallChart6_0.pdf
    I see utility light output at connector X3 pin 7. (X3/7) which is a logic controlled output that is unfused but will turn off in case of over current. The utility light ground looks to be on connector X3 pin 21.
