Disabling DRL warning light for 2013 Honda Fit

Does anyone know how to disable the DRL (Daytime Running Lights) on a 2013 Honda Fit. I recently just installed HIDs and DRL warning light comes on anyway to remove it

i may be wrong and might be 10 amp.

eitherway my 2013 has no DRL fuse anymore and my car starts fine. check and make sure you didnt bump another fuse loose

EDIT just forget the manual, the fuse cover has the diagram!

You have a 13 fit also and you don't get that DRL warning light on your dash? Yea man I'm like pretty sure it was the 7.5 fuse but imma double check again and try again cuz if yours works then mine should work fine

remove DRL fuse whenever you intend to use bulbs that use a DIFFERENT wattage. HIDs are lower wattage, superbright bulbs are 9 times out of 10 higher wattage


Factory bulbs are LONG LIFE bulbs that can deal with the negative effects of using DRL circuits that are simply low voltage "Lows"

short term: Remove DRL fuse. Plain and simple
