Go to page 1 and look at the pics. Pop the hood. Open the panel by the driver's side. If your '07 panel looks the same then you have no problem. Mine's an '06 and works like a charm.

Is this right,

During the day in Auto mode I have no lights at all.....In park, I have park and drl. But also if I turn to either park or all lights, then turn her off and open the door there is no beeping noise, telling me that I left the lights on????

Besides that it works great, love havin the drl's on at night!!

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Something's not right there.

::Without Diode::
Daylight - DRL + Park lights
Night - Headlights + Park lights + DRL

::With Diode::
Daylight - DRL only
Night - Headlights + Park lights + DRL

great ! gonna try it !

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

will this work in my buddies 03"?

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

This thread is actually really old. If you look at the 1st page again, you can see the posts are from 2003. So they started modding the '03s and so on. The H3s are also referencing this mod. Again if the panel looks like the pics on the first page, it should be OK. Do not "accidentally" touch other connection points or you may short out your whole panel.

For pics:
Page 1 - Wire / Panel
Page 2 - Diode from Radio Shack
Page 8 - Shows where to solder diode (if you want)

Ok, never mind....work like a charm now.....don't ask......

So for normal DLR's on during the day (and nothing else) and adding DLR's while the headlights are on (lowbeams) we jumper the relay's as stated on the first page of this thread and add a diode to go to the low beam head lamp relay correct?

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

This is the one, Just the yellow or the read and yellow, but the yellow is a diode...

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Correct!:beerchug:

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

What he was mentioning was if you added another jumper (the yellow one), you can only have the DRL on when the low beams are on. No DRL when using High beams.

Just do the basic one first with diode. I think you'll be happy with just that one. Also, look at your H2 panel and you will realize how easy it is. I was scared to do it until I saw what I was dealing with.

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Just an FYI, it works with the 07's.......

Nice easy mod with the diode!

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

I must have done something different. I pluged the DLR's into the running lights and they stay on no matter what beam i'm on.

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Stuart,
I read this two times while on conversence call this afternoon and downloaded it after what you tried to do on my Hummer. It is important to me and thank you. I think we got it right. Why I really wanted to get this done is because Wyoming is 97,000 sq. miles and all the roads are "open range". You need all the light you can get at night. From White mountain, I am looking at the Unita Mountains 150 miles away in Uath. Between me and the mountains is the world famous Flaming Gorge Reservoir. 92 miles of trout fishing.
Thank you for looking out for the "fisherman".

easiest and coolest mod in the universe:dancingbanana::dancingbanana::jump:

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

very cool mod.....except I put ambers in my drl's

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Just got done doing this mod, Very cool NOW onto my light bar with Brites!!

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Okay...I've been reading through this forum for about an hour and can't seem to find what I'm looking for...

I'd like to be able to maintain the original daytime functionality of my DRLs AND also have them stay on at night (when the headlights are on)...BUT...

...I do NOT want to wire them to the parking lights. I do NOT want to have my parking lights on during the day when my DRLs are on.

There is reference in an earlier post to a 'relay kit from RICKS'...? Does anyone have more info on this relay kit or another method to make this mod work?

Thanks in advance.

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Ya know what...I just found the post in this thread regarding the diode...nevermind. I guess I just needed to read for an hour and 5 minutes before opening my mouth.

Thanks anyway.

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Hey I did it first :clapping: Exactly one year now and still working like brand new:beerchug:

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

If any one is interested I have a set of 3157 blue LED bulbs just for the DRL!

PM if interested!

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

WORKS LIKE A CHARM!

The diode does the trick!

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

did mine at work today, 3 mins flat... and that includes the time it takes to open the hood and find the fuses and relays!:clapping:

i am a wire rigging god... just check my work... i don't charge much either, in case someone needs some help.....

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Now that I've got another H2, I had to do this mod. For anyone interested, I made up 3 extra diodes wire strands.

For the first 3 people to PM me, I will send them the diode. It's soldered and heatshrinked, ready to go.

PM sent

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

All diodes are gone.

Thanks guys.

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Mark did you do this to your SUT?

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Yup, sure did...

For some reason nobody around my area sells the 1 amp 200v in4003 diode the closest I found was the 1 amp 400v in4004 can I use this one or should I order the in4003 off of ebay

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

U dont have radio shack???

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Ya but for some reason in Toronto they only carry the 1 amp 50v diode

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Does anybody know if the in4004 diode wil work its a 1 amp 400v

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

FINALLY decided to do the diode mod. Not to long ago I bought some 39 led DRL bulbs for the H2 and they match my HID kit pretty close. Ill post some pics up as soon as it gets a little darker.

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Here are my LED's DRL I bought from a place in JapanAttachment 51340

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

I bought some on eBay TOO!!! The PIAA's I was using burnt out WAY TOO QUICK!!!

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Worked like a charm. I wish the rattle in the dashboard was as simple.

thanks,
Shan

Here are a couple of pics of the before & after!




AWESOME!

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Great thread brought back to life. I was wondering how people where doing both lights on. Now the question to myself is to Diode or not to Diode?

Whats the size or a description to ask the Radio Shack guy? edit: found it. Radio shack PN: 276-1102

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
 

Ah did mine after work.. decided to go no diode, Washington pretty doom and gloom at this time of year.
Thanks!

Re: DRLs on with Parking Lights. It works. (Pics)
