Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Mercury Grand Marquis and 2009 Ford Crown Victoria. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The LCM can be configured to turn the DRL on for this vehicle. Refer to MODULE CONFIGURATION article for information on this programmable parameter.
The DRL system is designed to turn the high beam headlamps on at a reduced intensity when the following conditions are met:
- The ignition switch is in the RUN position.
- The headlamps have not been commanded on from any other input.
- The vehicle is not in PARK (P).
The DRL system remains active until the autolamp system turns on the headlamps or the headlamp switch is turned to the HEADLAMPS ON position.
The high beams are illuminated at full intensity when flash-to-pass mode is requested.
