Hi,

My 2003 Allroad comes from California and does not have the daytime running lights (DLR). This is required to pass the federal inspection in Canada.

I have a few questions:

- How can I quickly enable daytime running lights on an 2003 Audi Allroad ?
- Is that only a software change or it requires re-wiring ?
- Is that something I can do myself or you suggest I go to a dealer ?

Any help on this would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot!

BTW.: I heard about a DRL "fuse mod" the person who explained it to me also told me it didn't work on his 2001 Allroad... I don't know if I should spend time on trying it.

I'm looking for the easiest/cheapest solution.

Thanks!

 

Yeah there is plenty of help! Use the search button, this topic was covered many times before. Sorry I dont mean to be rude but we get topics that have been asked so many times before its like beating a dead horse!

Welcome to the site!

 

Thanks 1move.

I have done some research and will probably go to a dealer for my car.

 

Don't go to the dealer! It is really, really easy to effect DRLs. Look at this thread for the best way to go about it. forums.audiworld.com/allroad/msgs/235835.phtml


I think the jumper wire on the back of the headlight switch is much easier and better than the fuse mod. You will read that I did it with a switch so I could turn on/off.

If you only want to pass inspection, you can place a temporary jumper wire in the switch and then remove it after you've passed. Total time should be about 5 minutes!!!!!

Have fun.

 

not sure but I think the headlight switch is different in Canada
go to the dealer buy one slap it in
it should turn on the corner lights, fog lights and tail lights

 

That's all I did, and left it in. 3 years later and it's still working great. Fogs only.


Dunno, it might work. Certainly elegant. But a lot more $$ than a jumper wire too......

 

Which pins do you jump on headlight switch ?
