DRL's simultaneously
Good morning. Please supply detailed information as you offered to activate DRL's with headlights for your post. Thank you sir

you can put a diode between your parking light relay and your drl relay to have the drls on with the headlights. during the day, on auto, only the drls are on. if this is what you're looking for, let me know, i'll tell you which relay contacts to jump between, and which way the diode goes.

You have impressed me with your knowledge sir. Can you add detailed directions explaining n how to facilitate my DRL's coming on at night to simulate fog lights? Don't even know what a dioDe is, NOT TO MENTION know where to purchase... THANKS

Hello I print off your document with pictures for installing a diode. Two questions. First will 18 gauge wire suffice as I'm unable to locate 20 gauge in my hometown. and how/which way does a diOde install? thank you[DRL's simultaneouslyQUOTE=shortbus;7800]you can put a diode between your parking light relay and your drl relay to have the drls on with the headlights. during the day, on auto, only the drls are on. if this is what you're looking for, let me know, i'll tell you which relay contacts to jump between, and which way the diode goes.[/QUOTE]

Step 1: get some 20g wire, a 200v 1amp diode (Radio shack PN: 276-1102)
Step 2: Install the diode inbetween a line of wire. Or better put, get two pieces or wire and wire on to each side of the diode. You can solder it or wrap the wire around the diode wire and tape it up with electrical tape (NOT RECOMMEND, you should solder it)
Step 3: Remove the Prk fuse 10amp and the drl fuse 10amp.
Step 4: lift the park relay and drl relay and place the wire/diode ends (exposed wire) into the specific slots in the relay. 86/85 respectivily. Make sure the little grey strip, the cathode side, is point towards the PRK RELAY 86. Also make sure the diodes wires arent exposed and not grounding on anything.
Step 5: Replace the relays in their specific slots. Make sure to line them up correctly; they got numbers next to the contact points on the bottom so its really easy no to mess this up.
Step 6: Replace the fuses.
Step 7: Enjoy!!

The DRL and High Beam relays are PCB mounted relays so its not as easy as the early models.
I'm working on this for my truck but it looks like I'll have to add 2 relays to make it work for me

There are relays they're just not removable nor easily accessible. They are soldered to a PCB board.
I'm going to add 2 relays and use the high and low beam power at the fuses to control the control side of the added relays then pull power from the B+ terminal of the fuse box to power the DRL's when the headlights are on..
