firefighter_0029 Posted July 11, 2006 Report Posted July 11, 2006 Those of you with DRL's 2 Questions: Do 96 Luminas have Auto Headlights with the DRL's? And is the fuse for it #3 in the Fuse Box? Quote
DiscoStudd Posted July 11, 2006 Report Posted July 11, 2006 Are you saying they were optional? My old 96 Loomie had neither auto headlights, nor DRL's. I don't recall there being anything in the owner's manual saying they were available on non-Canadian models, either... Quote
bluegp Posted July 11, 2006 Report Posted July 11, 2006 I don't believe my old '96 Lumina had DRL's either. I dug out the '96 shop manual. It shows RPO T61 being the code for DRL's. It has a schematic for the DRL module also. It shows fuses #3 (DRL MDL) & #15 (HVAC #1) being tied to it. I don't believe they came with auto-on lights and there is no mention of it in the shop manual. Quote
MonteCarloChick Posted July 11, 2006 Report Posted July 11, 2006 Montes/Luminas only had DRL's in 97+ Quote
firefighter_0029 Posted July 11, 2006 Author Report Posted July 11, 2006 My 96 Lumina had them but I can't remember if it had auto on or not though. I think it did but I've had alot of cars with them since I've had it. I know they came with them because I robbed the whole Dash wiring harness and 2 Modules for them this morning at work from a 96. Weird thing is though we have 8 or 9 96 Montes and none of them have DRL's they are just like mine with a spot in the fuse box but no wiring. I don't believe my old '96 Lumina had DRL's either. I dug out the '96 shop manual. It shows RPO T61 being the code for DRL's. It has a schematic for the DRL module also. It shows fuses #3 (DRL MDL) & #15 (HVAC #1) being tied to it.

bluegp Posted July 11, 2006 Report Posted July 11, 2006 Can you get me the wiring diagrams Please? OK; I'll try to scan them tonight. Quote
firefighter_0029 Posted July 12, 2006 Author Report Posted July 12, 2006 I would be great thanx. PA Boys gotta stick together. Quote

Well it's probably just the Luminas then because only 97+ Montes had DRLs. Thank God. Quote
firefighter_0029 Posted July 12, 2006 Author Report Posted July 12, 2006 96 Montes did have DRL's not alot of them though. It's like finding a 96 With D/P Climate Controls and a MoonRoof. If I can figure out a few little details. I'm putting them in mine for the Auto Headlights. What can I say.... I'm Lazy. Quote
MonteCarloChick Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 Are you sure the 96's didn't have the fuse put in? I was always told it was only stock in 97+. And I have a 96 LS with climate control Quote
firefighter_0029 Posted July 12, 2006 Author Report Posted July 12, 2006 Does yours have driver an passenger controls?

firefighter_0029 Posted July 12, 2006 Author Report Posted July 12, 2006 Man yours is kinda weird then. Yours has to be a late 96. Mine was actually made in 95 but it was sold as a 96. Quote
MonteCarloChick Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 Ever see a Monte with a bench? Those are weird. Quote
chadz34 Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 Those of you with DRL's 2 Questions: Do 96 Luminas have Auto Headlights with the DRL's? And is the fuse for it #3 in the Fuse Box? MIne has the dial, but they come on automatically. I was under the impression it was an option. Quote
bluegp Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 Here's the diagram for the DRLs from the '96 W shop manual: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v617/Blue78/Misc/96DRL1.gif http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v617/Blue78/Misc/96DRL2.gif Let me know if you need any other info from the manual.

firefighter_0029 Posted July 13, 2006 Author Report Posted July 13, 2006 Awesome thanx!! I think I need to find another Module out of something else. I put them in and the DRL's are the low beams instead of the High Beams. I'll get some pics tomarrow. Quote
nebojsa_o Posted July 13, 2006 Report Posted July 13, 2006 What is it with DRL's and '96?? My Cutlass in Canada, doesn't have DRLs, and it should Unless something is just fucked up... Sorry to go OT.. Quote
