new 2007 DRL + HID help!

hey i just picked up a new 2007 lgt and i removed the drl -- unpluged the white connector driverside and installed HIDs

the highbeams dont work or either the fog lights

does anyone know of this issue on the later models ? ?

same thing happens on my 07. no DRLs = no fog lights and no high beam.

I found an old post about snipping the brown wire that controls the DRLs

not sure if it would work for MY07s

u do it first and let me know if it works:lol:

You may have unplugged the wrong one, if the wrong plug is gone you will lose highs and fogs but LOW/DRLs will stay on.

there is but only one plug down there

I'm going out of town this weekend but will try early next week. I'll let you know

there is more then one plug under there I unplugged the wrong one the 1st time i did it.

Im going to check again, thanks for the help, i will take pics under there if there is only one connector, if so subaru did change things on the the 2007 .

i guess i have to wait for someone to figure out how to hard wire them some how

the drl box on my 05 is on the firewall above/behind the clutch.... it may be a different procedure for 07's....

what HID kit did you get?

Okay, there is 1 white plug and when you unplug it, it turns off the DRL but hibeam and fogs dont work. I had to cut the BROWN wire which disables the low beam drl but the park lights remain on. (Thanks to the previous post )

I didnt want the park lights on so i tested the wires and cut the blue with black strip, which disables the park lights drl.

all is good im happy.

next mod sti front lip and perrin axel back on its way in the mail

yea they do, thats how i drained the battery on the car the first day i got it...at the dealer's lot.

went home and disabled the DRL an hour later. i might try to see if i can get the foglights to act as DRLs now just for safety's sake

thank you

DRL disable just got a whole lot more complicated. Thanks Subaru for changing something that really didn't need to be changed.

it was to save weight!!!

you sure you didnt leave the parking switch on???

hold up..... the parking lights stay on with the key on IGN ???

no,

the park lights of the DRl stay on if you dont cut the wire

What about DRL indicator on dash? Will it turn OFF if I disable both (headlamp DRL and park lights DRL) or any one of them?

Thanks!

Thanks!

if you cut both wires then yes, if you leave one or the other the drl light will remain on the cluster
