View 11 RepliesHow to disable DRL-
1) Find the little black box to the right of the battery.
2) Remove cover
3) Pull the smaller of the 3 middle Relay/fuse out.
Actually if the engine was on, it would feel hot to touch, because the resister is taking some of the load from the DRL. The other two Relays are for the coolant fans + Brake.
While DRLs are great where you need them (northern countries, rainy places) some people don't want them on all the time. The Gen1 Prius (2001-2003) with Factory DRL's is a bit a pain to defeat. You cannot just pull a fuse or relay and the main DRL relay is a complicated unit that is burried far far under the dash.
View 2 RepliesLooking for the right direction to disable or find out how to disable my factory daytime running lights on my 2015 F350 ? i have installed a set of Recon projectors with Haols & LEDs & want to have just the Halos & LEDs as my daytime running lights & have the factory(now the projectors) disabled so that once i turn the switch on the dash to "on" or "auto" my headlights will turn on(the projectors) and the "Halos" & "LEDs" will turn off......

I tried it and it did not work. How to disable the running lights in an 2001 Passat?
I've tried it every way I can think of and I can't get my daytime running lights to turn off. I have the base model gti so I don't have buttons on my steering wheel. the manual says to push the left wand down and to the back. then turn on the ignition for three seconds......doesn't do anything. I am thinking they left out a step or forgot something counting wise?
View 19 RepliesI rack up about 6 hours of daytime commute driving each week, and 6 hrs of night-time driving each week, in my 2009 Prius. That's 12 hours a week the low beam lights are used. I can't consider anything but the Basic sylvania headlights, as they are only rated for around 350 hours (like 9003BP), aand the premium bulbs are rated for much less. Is there any way to disable this daytime running feature? On my Corolla it is possible to ground a wire going to the daytime running module...the wire that becomes grounded when the parking brake is engaged. But the way Prius is all computerized, there may not be any discrete daytime running module.
View 3 RepliesJust got 2012 TDI. Can't turn off Daytime Running Lights. Was able to do it with menu option with my 2011. Manual says something about pull turn signal lever back & down & turn on ignition for 3 sec, but couldn't get to work. Took to dealer, they fooled with it, hooked up computer, no luck. Looks like turning off DRLs not an option. Is this new Federal reg for 2012?
View 21 RepliesI've recently purchased a new R and to have it legally registered in Canada I have to change it so that the daytime running lights come on automatically when the car starts and the odometer must read in km per hour.
I'm assuming a lot of this can simply be done with a vagcom tool but I'm curious if there's going to be some wiring I have to deal with to get the lights going?
I've searched all over the place and can't find any clear info with regards to turning the DRL's on. It seems everybody wants to turn them off or the threads are about another platform. I'd rather not have to pay the stealership to do this to be honest.
I wanted to find a way to turn off my daytime running lights on my 03 jetta. I found a video that said to tape off the pin in the light switch in the interior of the car.
View 6 RepliesIs it possible if Lexus can make it so when the Daytime running lights are on that the tail lights come on? It appears MASS has just passed a law when it is raining and you have your windshield wipers on you have to have your lights on...I leave mine on Auto and have auto windshield wipers so kinda takes away the purpose if I have to turn my lights all the way on each time.
View 5 RepliesI live in Canada and a few months ago I purchased a used 2011 Prius III from a Dodge dealer in Arizona. Part of the Canadian RIV import requirements was to have daytime running lights installed in the car. I figured since I'd have Canadian Tire do it because they're also the ones doing the provincial and federal inspections. So they installed a module something like this: Daytime Running Light System | Canadian Tire
View 1 RepliesI've never been a fan of daytime running lights, useless option that shortens the life of the bulbs. My Audi A8L had an option in the MMI that would allow you to turn the DRL's off. Is there a similar option on the 04 Phaeton W12? Or is there a fuse I can pull? Or is VAG-COM the only way (I don't have one yet - not in my immediate budget)?

View 10 RepliesLet me start off by saying I have removed the TFL pin and I am doing it on the euroswitch. But the suckers still keep coming here is the catch I have Xenons installed on my car and the bulbs are not the cheapest to replace. I installed the Xenons from an audi TT. Also if I need a VAG computer or tech I got acces to that too.
View 2 RepliesWhat kind of bulb goes in the DRL's? Also, what's the easiest way to replace them?
View 3 RepliesI got my LED DRL kit today, the harness has 3 wires red(+), black(-), and white(for connect to (+) of headlight so when headlight on the drl will go off). So I will connect black wire to negative of battery or ground, red wire to ACC or ign. So my question is how can I find ACC and how can I connect white wire to (+) of headlights? My led drl kit is similar with the kit in the link: [URL] ...
View 1 RepliesI just picked up a Camry SE the other day and noticed that there are no daytime running/driving lights. I had them on my '05 Camry LE but this '12 SE doesn't seem to have them. Are my bulbs just out? Or do they not come with DRLs anymore? The switch in the car has "Lights On, Side lights, Auto, and No DRL." I always leave it on Auto.
View 14 RepliesIs there any chance to remove the Day Time Running lights, connect and LED strip and still use the parking brake functionality and have it automatically switch to the low lights (HID) and still use the LED strip?
