Daytime Running Lamp Control Unit: Description and Operation
SYSTEM OPERATIONPL vehicles built for use in Canada are equipped with a Daytime Running Lamp (DRL) system. The DRL system operates the headlamps at 50% illumination with the headlamp switch OFF, park brake released and the ignition ON. The DRL system is controlled by the Daytime Running Lamp Module. The DRL module overrides the headlamp switch when the headlamps are turned OFF. The headlamps operate normally when the headlamps are turned ON.
