Default How to avoid Daylight Running Lights (DRL), when it parked?
Hi all,

Anyone knows how to avoid Daylight Running Lights (DRL), when the 2005 Mitsubishi Outlander parked?

We went to a drive-in theater when the weather still a bit cold at night. We ran the heater and applied the hand brake (turn off and on). The DRL straight to the screen!

Please help. Thanking in advance

You could basically wire in a kill switch. Find the wires giving power to the DRL and splice in a kill switch. The switch will be in your car some where and stop the power by a flick of a switch.

I have a 07 XLS. My DRL doesn't come on until put the gear in D(rive).
