come on automatically whenever the ignition is
placed in the ON/RUN position, and the headlight
switch is turned to the position, and the dusk
sensor detects sufficient external light.
On some vehicles, the Daytime Running Lights
may deactivate, or reduce intensity, on one side
of the vehicle (when a turn signal is activated on
that side), or on both sides of the vehicle (when
the hazard warning lights are activated).
The DRL can be activated/deactivated from the
