Running Lights After Remote Start

When you remote start your truck do the running lights turn on? I feel like they did/supposed to but mine dont right now. I did a few Forscan changes and not sure if something happened because of it.

Yes. Regardless of key or app starting.

I haven't checked running lights on remote start, but I also changed the automatic light setting in ForScan, and it nuked the DRL's. I'll have to see if it changed the running lights, too.

ETA: Yep... remote start still triggers the running lights and the DRL, despite the changes I made in ForScan.

you can turn off your DRL on the productivity screen. Forscan not required

Actually, I want the DRL's... just not automatic lights.

You may be out of luck. Below is from the 2023 manual. No idea if this can be overridden or or altered in FORScan.
