Yes. If your Yaris has DRLs, as soon as you start the engine the headlights will turn on. If they do not, then your Yaris does not have the DRL module.

I tried to find DRL module under the steering wheel, but did not found it. There were a few empty sockets and I thought is someone removed the module.

But, when is start the engine, headlights will turn on after one or two seconds, tricky.. Anybody knows where is could find the module and what kind the socket of the module is?

On your car it is just below the top of the dash, to the left of the speedometer.

Oh my god. Looks like impossible thing to remove. I just looked under the steering wheel and it is hard to even see this far.

I asked local Toyota Service about DRL module and they weren't even heard about it. That made me think is these models even DRL (here in Finland). Thought, I read somewhere that Yaris with cold weather package has it. So I assume Finland is cold place enough.

You would have to remove the top of the dash to get at it.

Are you sure that my car have DRL. Headlights turn on when starting the engine. Is that the sign of DRL and that can't be done otherwise?

I'm just thinking why Toyota service have never heard about DRL in here.
