Can't turn off the headlamps

Went the the drive in with my 2006 Canadian edition Envoy. Cannot find anyway to turn off the headlamps. Tried just about everything but the minute you turn the key switch rto the accessory position so the radio comes on to listen tro the movie, so does the headlamps.

Anybody have any suggestions?

Yank a Relay? wow, not a very hot expert, no offense. Under the manual headlight switch, is another button that looks like an eyebrow thats been circled, then crossed out. Press this 3x, it will make 2 beeps, and viola, you've disabled the automatic headlights. Press it 3x more to re-enable them

My Subaru's daytime lights go off when the parking brake is set. It may work for you.

Apply the parking brake.

    The only other solution is to pull out the headlight relay from the under hood fuse box.

2006 gmc envoy day time running lights and low beams not working

You very well could have a couple of faulty relays 45 & 46 in the underhood fuse / relay box . Could also have DTC'S - diagnostic trouble code's stored in the BCM - body control module .
DTC B2575 Headlamp Control Circuit
When the body control module (BCM) senses a request for headlamp or daytime running lamp (DRL) illumination, the BCM sends a pulse width modulated (PWM) ground signal to the low beam headlamp driver module through the low beam headlamp driver module control circuit. The low beam headlamp driver module will illuminate the headlamps, adjusting the intensity based on the PWM signal received.
DTC B2585 Park Lamp Control Circuit
When the body control module (BCM) receives a ground signal from the headlamp switch commanding to illuminate the park lamps, the BCM will energize the park lamp relay by grounding the park lamp relay control circuit.
DTC B3802 Park Lamps Request Circuit
The body control module (BCM) monitors the park lamp switch signal circuit and the headlamp switch headlamps on signal circuit in order to determine when the park lamps and headlamps should be illuminated. When the headlamp switch is turned to PARK, the BCM senses that the park lamp switch signal circuit is grounded and the headlamps switch headlamps on signal circuit is open. The BCM will then energize the park lamp relay illuminating the park lamps. When the headlamp switch is turned to HEAD, the BCM senses that the park lamp switch signal circuit and the headlamp switch headlamps on signal circuit are grounded. The BCM will then energize the park lamp relay and headlamp driver module (HDM) illuminating the park lamps and headlamps.
relay # 46 is the HDM headlamp driver module .

CHECK INSIDE YOUR FUSE BOX (USUALLY LOCATED UNDER THE HOOD). LOOK FOR THE RELAYS THAT CONTROL THE HEADLAMPS. TRY TO CHANGE PLACES WITH THE ONE'S THAT THE NUMBER MATCHES. GENERAL MOTORS SEEMS TO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THESE. THE LOCATOR PICTURE WILL BE INSIDE THE LID COVERING THE FUSE PANEL BOX.

I didnt know better and i ran a larger pair of tires on the front of my 2006 gmc envoy. when i tried to put the transfer case in auto the car started making a knocking sound. i turned it back to off right...

Did the car drive fine in 2wd? Sounds like you have a different problem with the transfercase. You can run bigger tires as long as they don't rub on the ball joints which may require grinding to make work. Trailblazer/ Envoy owners have put up to 35" tires on there with the same transfer case. Of course with suspension modification, but with the same transfercase and hubs.

How to get headlight cover off 2006 GMC Envoy?

The headlight assembly doesn't come apart (not easily anyway). To remove it from the car, there are two L shaped tabs located at the top of the assembly, pull these straight up. This will release the assembly.

I have a 2004 Envoy XL. The passenger side dim headlamp went out about 2 weeks ago and I replaced it. On Friday, I was leaving a meeting and I noticed my neither one of my headlamps were on, then I hit a...

This sounds like a loose connection/bad wire somewhere for the low beam lights. Can't really give you more information without seeing the vehicle, and wiring diagram for the circuit. Usually, things that go on and off when hitting bumps are connection/wiring problems. The fact that one of your low beam headlamps burnt supports this theory. Bad connections or wiring mean lower voltage, thus higher amperage at the bulb, motor or whatever it's running, which makes them burn a lot quicker.

Engine whinning

I had the same problem on my 2005 Envoy. Turned out to be the idler pulley bearing. It is just a pulley the belt rides on. The bearing in the pulley was what was making the high pitched whine. I replaced the bearing, and the noise went away.
