Daytime Running Lights

2295 Views 7 Replies 8 Participants Last post by  mooch
I would like to add Daytime Running Lights to my 05 and 06 Mustang GTs.
If DRLs are required in Canada, there must be a way to do it.
If a module or relay can't be added, does anyone know a way to get the job done by just adding a jumper or a wire so that the headlights, or fog lights come on automatically when the vehicle is running.
thanks

Principles of Operation

If the SJB is configured for daytime running lamps (DRL), this feature illuminates the low beam headlamps at a reduced intensity when the following conditions exist:

The ignition switch is in the RUN position.
The headlamp switch is in the OFF position.
The PARK brake is not engaged.
For additional information on the low beam headlamps, refer to Section 417-01 .


Inspection and Verification

NOTE: When installing a new smart junction box (SJB), it must be reconfigured for this feature, if originally equipped. Refer to Section 418-01 .

Verify the customer concern by operating the daytime running lamps (DRL) following these steps:
Place the ignition switch in the RUN position.
Place the headlamp switch in the OFF position.
Verify that the PARK brake is not engaged.
If the DRL does not operate, make sure the SJB is configured for DRL before proceeding to the next step.
Verify the parking lamp operation.
Place the headlamp switch in the parking lamps ON position.
If the parking lamps do not operate correctly, refer to Section 417-01 .
Verify the high beam operation.
Place the headlamp switch in the headlamps ON position.
Place the multifunction switch in the HIGH BEAM position.
If the high beams operate correctly and the DRL operation is incorrect, install a new SJB. Refer to Section 419-10 . Test the system for normal operation.
If the high beams do not operate correctly, refer to Section 417-01 for correct diagnosis.
