I said OK and it hasn't been off since. Saabs, unlike some other makes, don't have "special" light arrangements for DRL's - it's just like turning the headlights on. That leads us to the question - why do they bother with the DRL feature at all - why not just let people who want their headlights on to turn them on? Personally, I don't like DRL's. I turn my headlights on when I think they are needed. That might be in the day, or as the sun sets, but it's my decision. I also like to be able to turn on my parking lights independently. I had the dealer reprogram my car so that the headlight switch operates as they did in the past. off/parking lights/headlights with no DRL's. I also had the fog lights reprogrammed so I could turn them on and off as I wish with any combination.
