DLR vs headlights Posted by Ari [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Hi beams won't stay on. Not relays?, donE 97 aero, Sun, 7 Nov 2004 19:43:45 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I think LDH may have hit it. The brights will only flash if the headlight switch is in the 'off' position, but you still get DRL. It takes going to the far right 'on' position for the high beams to stay engaged. First, I'll assume the headlight switch is in the ON position. I'm wondering if your headlight switch may have died inside, and isn't telling the headlight system that you want your actual headlights on, not just the DRLs. In which case, no high beams. It can be hard to tell the difference between DRLs and headlights.
As a test, as of an evening, shine the headlights on a wall. Switch between the DLR position (far left) and headlights (far right). If you don't see a brightness difference, then I'd suspect the switch, or one of the contacts in the relay box. If you do see a difference (it isn't that much), then I'd check the contacts in the relay box.
