Daytime driving lights

Does anyone know where the wires are for the daytime driving lights? Or more specifically where I can cut and cap off for it? I have an 04 F-350 CC. I don't like my lights being on all the time. I would like to disconnect it like I did my 01 7.3. Where can I disconnect this? On the 7.3 it was a resister that you could just clip on the drivers side inside fender. I cannot find it on the 6.0.

mine are not daytime running lights are you sure yours are? To get mine to stay on I have to pull and turn the switch to the left for the lights to come on in low light conditions. Daytime running lights were not an option I am aware of. Also there is a sensor someplace on the dash for the lights to illuminate but again it all depends on where the light switch is set.

No for some reason mine have only the three way switch. OFF, Parking Lights, and On. However; even when off if the emergency brake is off then the lights are on. Very dim but all the time no matter what.

Haya,

Thanks a lot. I will try it tomorrow. I just want the lights off when I turn them off.

Well that did it. I thought I would have to clip something but it was an easy disconnect. Thanks a lot. Finally when I turn my lights off they actually go off.

Glad to hear your son is home now. I always have a bias towards Marines and Sailors. Don't know why .
