Regarding the full time DRL and all 4 on mods, has anyone tried the factory override to turn off lights when in park with parking brake applied to see if it still works?  Owners manual says if in park and you still have the engine running the lights will stay on, but you can press the dome override button 4 times quickly, you'll hear a chime and the the lights will go off.  Maybe it's more than 4, can't remember but I just press it quickly several times until I get the chime and they go off.  Resets when you turn the ignition off and restart, or you can repeat the dome override procedure to turn them back on.  Pretty handy when unloading at boat ramps early in the morning and you don't want to blind the other guys and gals.  I want to do both full time DRL and all 4 on mods but want to know if this nice little feature from the factory still works.  Can someone try it and let us know?  Thanks...

Yes this is possible! The instructions for the 2002 Full Time DRL (FTDRL version #2 w/ diode) are in this thread:

I, along with a few other members have done this and it works very well. You will have the override function that the version #1 of this mod does not have and they are not on key on to key off.

Thanks Chad for the pics and instructions!!!!  It took me like 8 minutes to change the bulbs and a mere 26 minutes to make the drls full time.  I had a hard time getting those wires out though and then, I wondered what holds them in in the next hole?  I forgot to pull the green block off, I just pulled and plugged.  Do you think it will last?  Or was I suppose to attach something on the other side of the green block?  So far I think it looks really cool and can't wait for it to get dark here.  Thanks again, Breedlove

When you move the connector for the DRL do they turn off when the other lights are turned off using the headlight switch being moved to the O position?

Here ya go Poppies Baby...I'll give it to ya with pics!

Ygmn..see I told ya we should've made this a sticky thread!  Grin




Has anyone had any issues with the DRLs staying on and the marker lights coming on? When headlights are on, the hazard indicators come on, no flashing and my air horns fire.

This really screwed up. Any ideas? I think I have a relay blown. I'm going to wire back to stock and see what happens.

Thoughts? Please help!

I've had no problems.

Are you sure you used the right directions?

Yep, I think it's something else. I switched it back tonight and the problem continued. Somehow it is effecting my airhorns, but not my stock horns. The relay for firing the airhorns is wired into the stock wire running from the horn button. Even completely disconnected, the lights are still messed up. I'm thinking it is either the DRL, Headlight, or horn relay or maybe the flasher. I've tried 3 relays on the air horns and maybe all 3 are bad. I'm going to call the delaer tomorrow and see if they've seen anything like this. It's the only aftermarket thing still hooked up. It maybe the flasher gone bad. Now, with the FTDRLs disconnected (wired stock) and the signal light switch is on, the signal light (in the direction of the switch) flashes fast and the opposite flashes just as fast, but dimmer.  banghead

I'm at a loss. I didn't think the DRL mod would have caused it, but I wanted to rule it out and switch it back before going to the dealer.
