- DISABLED DayTime Running Lights How To- 2007 Yaris! -

[yaris2010RS]

lmfao, i've had the car for 3 days and i found it very annoying..... i can give u a quick run down of it.....

get down on the floor inside drivers area, look at the clutch, there is a white push button sensor. there isn't much room to work and i had learned from previous sensor bypasses that some sensors have a resistor inside so the computer knows if u cut the wires and connect them so i didn't even attempt that. and the darn thing is put in with like 3 tons tourque so u get unbolt it either. so, as i did, wrap it with duct tape. lol. not very technical and jsut a quick fix for now till i can get the time asside to do a proper job. (prob this weekend and if i actually do a good job i'lll DIY it)

hey, i still couldn't take a look :( actually it's perfect in winter :)

my drl works while handbrake is on or off :( and the authorized service says "never ever don't cut any wires for warranty void"

i'm happy i didn't cut the blue wire. i had just unplugged it from the connector because of the dispossibility of cancellation. so i put it back to the connector

i think i'll go to a good electric technician and will give a try...

The more I look at the EWD for the European version of the DRL module, the more amazed I am about how different it is than ours.

One other quick thing that you can try is unplugging the green wire in pin 8 (the green wire next to the brown wire). This wire is the input from the alternator that tells the DRL module that the engine is running. With it removed, the DRL will think that the engine is not running and therefore won't waste the power to run the DRLs.

Sorry,
Once I tried; i pinned out wrong cable :( It didn't worked.
Then I didn't have enough time to try it. New marriage, new house, moving, holidays and lots of works.

I will try in the following days and give my reply. Thanks for your helps.

Are drl's fog lights or part of the main light house?

They are the actual headlight bulbs, pulsed to be a bit less bright and hence prolong bulb life.

can the removed module be installed on headlights with no DRL?

Not easily, as there are quite a few wiring differences between cars built with an without DRLs.

I picked up my 2010 3 door HB last week, 6 months old w 4600 miles and found this wonderful site. Lots of helpful info. I've been thinking about several DIY mods: removing the DRL & maybe the back Toyota name. But , Saturday I checked and I have no DRL. DO you think the first owner did the disabling? As I don't want it anyway I'm probably not going to do anything.

The car came with most packages & options, but I was disappointed yesterday to discover it does not have adjustable intermittent wipers, only fixed one speed. That should be standard. Is it something that could be added?

DRLs were eliminated on 2010's.

For the true intermittent wiper piece, check out this thread for a DIY on replacing the stalk, with a Prius one.

Wow, thanks for the info. I'm happy about the no DRL. The manual says how it works 'if equipped'.

The wiper mod looks simple. But, I'm having trouble finding a low price like you got. Will call some junk yards maybe. The online dealer price was about $148.

Disconnected DRL, is there a way to make the stock fogs work now?

[yaris2010RS]

ur gonna have to put the module back in and only cut the big blue wire.

i personally opened mine up and cut a chunk out of the internal wires

[marcus]

dont cut the wire..just pull it out just need small flat screw driver..
