That would be the old person thing to do! I figured the white truck person would jump out and I'd just miss my green arrow but then once I had it and there was room for the GTP I went for it.

Such a good samaritan. It makes me feel good when I can help people out on the road.

Liking my car better already. Thanks for the help guys. I guess next thing is to pull the console bezel and see what evil I can unhook there. Fn cold even in the garage though, whew.

Did you unplug the under dash connector or the fuse itself?

Both. DRL fuse and under dash connector in video. I've had the DRLs unplugged and taped (side of dash) forever.

So just to be sure, unplugging these three things isn't going to cause anything else to not work or do anything weird right?

**idrivejunk** · 01-10-2016

I have noticed no side effects. Gotta keep your head in the game daily though, and turn those headlights on and off when needed or required by law.

**Jaredthefail** · 01-10-2016

Is this the plug on the side of the dash?

**idrivejunk** · 01-10-2016

Thats the one!

**Jaredthefail** · 01-10-2016

Alright thanks!

**Jaredthefail** · 01-10-2016

Is the under dash one the one at the top of the picture? The second one down only has 6 prongs

**idrivejunk** · 01-10-2016

2nd from top in your pic.

**idrivejunk** · 01-10-2016

Go to the 1:20 mark in the vid-

**Jaredthefail** · 01-10-2016

Thanks for the help. I like my car more already

I tried the unplug option for a day. I missed having the lights flash with the alarm. Therefore, I tried the 'pull the yellow wire' method and it works like a charm. Headlights do not flash with the alarm or turn on with twilight sensor. However, the parking lights do flash with the alarm and they come on with the twilight sensor, which is fine for me. I just have to turn the headlight switch to turn on the headlights. This should help prolong the life of my HID headlights. I already burned up one ballast from the headlight flash, I suspect.

Thanks all for sharing this information!

Glad to help. I remember the agony of trying to figure this out back in the day.

I did this mod years ago when I still used the factory alarm. The funny thing is that all was well for about a year, then all of a sudden the park lights would "auto on", day or night. I've learned to live with it and like having the park lights now act as DRL's. LOL

I have thought about re-connecting the yellow wire and then unplug the module to totally disable the auto lights.
