HI this is my first post on this site. I am an avid do it "yourselfer" in electronics and can do a lot of modifactions and additions to my vehicles. I recently purchased a new Forenza EX wagon and learning the basics about the car. I discovered how to disable the DRL's so that when I add my new HID lights I will not have to worry about the low voltage until the true headlights are on.
This is how it works and how easy this is:
1. Look underneath where the hood release latch is.
2. There is a black box attached to a metal bracket.
3. There is a plug that the wires are facing towards the firewall
4. Disconnect that plug and there you go, no more DRL's
Becareful when disconnecting the plug it is in an awkward position and you don't want to break the connector. After I disconnected the plug my headlights will only turn on with switch on the steering wheel. No need to run any wires for the parking brake, an no loss of any other functions for this vehicle.
Thanks and I hope this not allready posted
