How do I fix this?? Im sure I am not the only one. The truck is stock height. What gives? Some turning traffic lights never turn And I have to wait for someone to get in the lane behind me, but if no one comes Im forced to run the red light....

I also ghost drive thrus, and have to drive to the window and explain.

Most newer intersections use cameras, the older ones used magnets. If you rolled up to it after it just changed red, try rolling back and forth a few feet so the system will recognize a new car is there.

Maybe your dead and just don't realize it. Good luck with that.
 
Try to move a little left or right so your wheel is over the sensors in the ground. Straddling it sometimes may not trigger it.

Or are you one of those people who pull past the sensor??? Hmmmm.....:gun6:

J/K!!!
 
Some of the old loop type sensors work based on magnets. Less metal, ie, cycles, etc. sometimes will not trigger them. No idea why a nonlifted vehicle would have problems.
 
They used to sell these magnets for the bottom of scooters and motorcycles to help with magnetic style sensors. Maybe that would help.
 
Yeah it just may be a problem with my city haha - its got its fair share of problems....

Im tired of having to run certain lights. My other car has no problem. Sucks.
