[mud_duck]

on my wifes older (98) 4runner you can turn off the headlights, on my buddies (08) you can turn the headlights off but on my (02) when i turn off the headlights my day time running lights stay on how can i make it to where they turn off all the way

Scribed to this one, I'm sure it not hard, just a matter of finding the right wire and jumping it. My wife's 02 4runner does the same shit..

You may know how my brain works but when I was reading your post I kept thinking, hell, I've never found a special wire before I went jumping in my truck!

Not sure if it's the same for us Tacomas or not though mud_duck.

After some more looking this appears to work for all 01-02 model 4Runners and Tacomas. 99-00 have a different module and thus a separate process. Not sure about pre-99 and 03-04.

I'm pretty sure that if I tried to jump anything like that in my wife's truck I would live to hear about it.

YT is a great resource, I'm sure they have this figured out.

 

[mud_duck]

well here is what i figured out

1. its fucking raining so now i am soaked
2. the module is not under the hood next to the battery so i got soaked for no reason
3. it is right above the gas pedal behind the e brake
4. new project soon
5. at least there will be some mud i can play in after work tomorrow

The module is only in the engine bay for 99-00 models. 01+ has it by the e-brake. That first link I posted has the procedure for disabling the DRL on 01-02 4Runners and Tacomas.

i guess i will be cutting a blk/yellow wire tomorrow

I cut mine a while back and its been fine, just make sure you cut the correct wire cause those DRL units are expensive

Ah, come on. If it's the wrong one, just reconnect it with a butt connector.

Yeah but I've seen people on YT cut the wrong wire for their model year and it toasts the DRL
