Where is my DRL Module......? Help With HID's - Toyota Yaris Forums

The Architect · 12-30-2008, 03:21 PM

Ok so I got HIDs in today (as shown below)

theyve got a ground and a power wire.

i put the wires in the headlight harness, the ground went into the slot that it did because the other slot had no effect at all (as illustrated below)

and turned on the lights and the bulb flickers then turns off.

I figure....DRLs need to be removed.

I find the DRL removal official thread and search underneath my steering wheel and all around for a half hour with no luck...

If I dont have a DRL Module for some reason then why are my HID's flickering?

HELP

THIS IS WHERE THE TUTORIAL SHOWS IT BEING

I'm sure you searched very thoroughly, but the DRL module is hidden REALLY well. It took me a really long time to find it (and an even longer time to pull it out...)

Do you have the convenience/cold weather package?

I dont think that I do, to be honest Idk, I think i resolved the HID flickering problem but im still curious as to where the module is at if I even have one.

that picture of the DRL module is of it taken out of its bracket.....i left mine up there and just unplugged the harness for it. i think i can see the wiring for it on the right of your last pic....its really tucked up and to the right....and its a biotch to get unplugged too (esp if you have bigger hands)

youll want that DRL module off before you fry your ballasts...

i also see you didnt buy bi-xenon HID's....looks like youll be w/o high beams...

i got them installed and working fine without any flickering or anything, didnt get the drl module out, my headlights are the depo projectors and yes im w/o high beams but theyre so bright it doesnt really matter, i never use highs anyways.
