    I didn't install a kit but enabled Scandinavian Daylight Running Lights in the car configuration file. This used the standard Xenon lights in my D4 TDV6 2.7 but at a lower light output. Doing that confuses every garage as whenever I got the car back from a service the lights would be turned off where I always leave them on auto.

    Dealers/repairers generally always turn off auto lights no matter what as as soon as they enter an under cover area the headlights will turn on permanently which equals a flat battery

    Does that turn on the signature lights as well as the headlights?

    Thanks Ron.

    My headlights look as though they are the same as yours. Might fire up the GAPIID Tool and give it a shot. Before I do, what is the default in case I want to reverse it?

    It's been years that I did this but I thought there were 2 settings. One for enable/disable and the other if you wanted Canadian or Scandinavian DRL. Scandinavian DRL also turns on the rear lights, Canadian DRL only uses the front lights.
