How to disable DRL on 97 Cutlass Supreme?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have a 97 Cutlass Supreme 4 door, which uses the 9006 bulbs (low beam headlights) for DRL. Is there any way to disable DRL but retain the "automatic lights on at night" feature? Yes I am willing to cut/splice wires, etc. if that is what it takes.

 

Forgive me, but I HATE daytime running lights!

Should be a fuse you can pull. My 96 had one inside. I think it is the DRL fuse.

I've tried pulling that fuse before, but it disables the whole light sensor circuit so you HAVE to use the switch. That's what I didn't want.

 

Instead, I read on this site a better way to do it. I left the DRL fuse connected, and unplugged the big heatsink-looking thing that lowers the voltage to the headlights in the daytime. Took all of 5 minutes.

 

Now the lights work like they should. Always on at night, and if you want them in the daytime, you use the switch.

 

Problem solved. 8)

Oh yeah I forgot the fuse turned off auto lights. Mine was way to sensitive so they were almost always on.
