Real DRL
....bear with me on this. My only experience with Daytime Running Lights is on my Chevy Silverado. There you do nothing. Once it turns dark your instruments lights come on (sensor on dash). Your headlights have been on all along. With the Fit you get a 'sorta' DRLs (ok), but you still need to turn on your 'real' headlights once the sun goes down. Do I have this right. Note complaining, just want to make sure I understand the operation.
Thanks!:wavey: |
Yeah, if you headlights are off, you'll just get the dim DRL. There are no sensors, so when it gets dark, you'll have to flip on the headlights.

Thanks!:wavey: DRLs are usually the highbeams set to a reduced voltage (and therefore a lower light output) that come on whenever the engine is running and the handbrake released. They are not a substitute for the headlights at night. I suspect that your Silverado have automatic headlights, that a lot of luxury vehicles have. Again, these are not the same as DRLs. Now, your Silverado may also be equipped with DRLs, but these are separate from the automatic headlights. |
