DAYTIME RUNNING LAMP
RELAY
REMOVAL
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) are only used in
vehicles manufactured for the Canadian market,
where this is required equipment. On vehicles
equipped with DRL, a right and a left DRL relay are
each located in a dedicated connector of the vehicle
wire harness. Each connector is snapped into an
opening in a stamped sheet metal bracket which is
secured with screws within the driver side front seat
riser just beneath the seat riser cover panel.
WARNING: To avoid personal injury or death, on
vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supple-
mental restraint system before attempting any
steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt
tensioner, or instrument panel component diagno-
sis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery
negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for
the system capacitor to discharge before perform-
ing further diagnosis or service. This is the only
sure way to disable the supplemental restraint sys-
tem. Failure to take the proper precautions could
result in accidental airbag deployment.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Move the driver side front seat to its most for-
ward position for easiest access to the seat riser
cover panel (Fig. 12).
(3) Remove the cover panel from the top of the
driver side seat riser.
(4) Remove the DRL relay by grasping it firmly
and pulling it straight out of the relay connector.
