Rather than bumping an ancient thread, you can just search for the necessary information which has been posted here multiple times. You also must add your vehicle information to your profile for an accurate response, since the DRL disable information is different depending on what model/year you have.

under the hood there is one but i dont recomend it, so ill tell u about the module in the cabin
on the pass side remove the glove box, all u need is a philips screw drive, unscrew all inside and two under it and one clip on the side, it will then come out on ur right side of the car ull see 2 relays in plain site directly (one inch at most) behind these relays is the module just unplug it and ur fine :-) |

Apparently all the photos died, and I was too lazy to take one. Here is the lost photo I found on archive.org

i did my 02 a few weeks ago. it looks very similar to the 04 and 05's
Very easy to do, took me all of 10 minutes and that was including lunch! |

Tried the one behind the glovebox and it worked except the low beams wouldn't turn on. Couldn't figure it out so I then moved onto the one under the hood that is on the strut but I guess the third clip I pulled under the hood seemed to be the charm because it worked. This thread is so ancient that the pictures are no longer here so I wasn't sure which one of those bastards to pull. So what are the other two clips right there by it that I disconnected because it threw a check engine light... Now I have to go to Auto Zone and check out the trusty OBD II and see if I just effed my new(ish) car...

front o2 sensor, up pipe egt, and boost control solenoid.
edit: noticed your car make/model... not sure what's there. obviously not the boost control solenoid! |

That has been covered many times in this forum. There's about 5 million ways to do it. Search friend, search!
The short answer: no, DRLs have nothing to do with your fogs. |

added a diode in series with the parking brake wire, ran a tap after the diode to one side of switch and another from ground at the power-mirror adjust wire ((because that was where i was putting my switch)). tapped power from there too. it should be pointed out that the parking brake light is illuminated on the dashboard whenever i turn the DRL off with this method. with DRL on, parking brake light works normally. using this method, there's no way around this -- what i'm doing is tricking the DRL module into thinking the brake is on when it isn't. someone way-back-then had gotten their illuminated SPST switch wiring wrong, so here is how it should be done ((maybe it will help someone one day)): switch has two wires for the interrupted circuit that it turns on/off (mine were blue), and a ground & a power wire for the light on it. since i was interrupting a ground wire, i tied together one of the blue wires with the switch's negative wire and patched it into the parking brake signal -- so when the switch is activated it draws a ground signal from the car and sends it to the DRL relay through the parking brake wire. the other blue wire, i connected directly to car ground. the power wire of the switch i tapped from the car from a source that is live whenever the ignition is on. this way my switch is always illuminated. if i wanted it to only be lit when i have the DRL circuit ground out, i would have connected the blue+black wire pair from the switch to car ground and the single blue wire to the brake signal. similarly if you're wanting to use a switch to send power to something, instead of ground, wire a blue & red together instead of a blue & black. i soldered in insulated disconnects for all the circuits so i can easily re-wire it either back to stock or to a different signal if i ever feel up to running out to the DRL resistor to interrupt its power instead ((which is the right way to do it but i just didn't feel like going to the trouble of routing something through my firewall into the engine bay... give me a couple weeks with the brake light on and maybe i'll wind up doing it anyway)) kudos to johnboy for the post again. i dug around for a couple weeks to see how i could go about this and his post was the single most useful one. picture of switch below -- a 12mm red LED SPST i got on amazon. had to cut the back of the mirror module a bit to get it to fit, but no real problem; didn't have to saw anything important away just plastic. |
