Well, I've got no idea and have given up on these now.
The relay defiantly works, can feel it click.
Connected the Nanocom up and they work while the Nanocom is connected, disconnect it and don't work. Strange.
I started playing with this again this evening.
I tested the relay, and no issues. Swapped it over with another one that I knew worked, and still no effect.
I then put the vehicle in drive (running) and held the relay on the pins, and I could hear the relay internally click! So the BCU is trying to activate the DRL (and the relay works)! It seems that somewhere after this relay the lighting power signal is getting lost...

HMMM now you own a landy so from the start you should have realized it a had a bloody good chance that it would have a problem, even tho it didn't work its not the cars fault it would be the human side that put her together at the start so don't blame her![]()
I enabled daytime running lights (04 D2a) and found myself replacing the globes every 2 to 3 months, so I disabled it again ...

Nanocom, D2 TD5 only.
Recently purchased the round ************ 130w lights with the plate (this is now flat by the way and does not require tabs and bending to fit - had held off putting them in due to my broken shoulder and having to bend them, opened the pack and found out I don't have to) and these have a DRL function. Was not concerned that they had the DRL as did not think it was available on the D2, then this thread pops up!

Have had the Philips Ultimum LED in the headlights but they did not seal well and the headlights are a little brown inside. These LED's were great by the way and gave a good spread of light, it was not enough for night times up in the High Country by themselves though, so was looking to put in a set of driving lights. Was told about these 130W lights by a mate who swears by them. So now thinking I may just install a light bar on the roof rack and keep the radiator clear.
The units themselves are genuinely surprisingly solid heavy units and guaranteed to be legal. May as well use the DRL function if it is so simple to do.

Yeaaaa, I don't recommend that.
I had to drive my TD5 manual a few days in the winter (with ~15cm fresh snow) with no front prop and the center diff locked. With studded proper winter tires ofcourse.
