I guess my '03 XLT didn't come with DRL's. I have a three-way switch that has automatic-off-on. The automatics are light sensing I guess, but I never use them.
Was the DRL standard in later builds?

Pull the fuse...

The headlights still work manually. I've never bothered to replace the DRL module and have never had any problems with other circuits.
Things could be different for other model years...

Didn't think of it before, but I'm from Canada were DRLs are mandatory equipment - on every vehicle. That might explain the "I have 'em" "I don't have em" situation...

I have a 06, had a toggle switch installed in the circuit and mounted above the brake release.
Now shutting down the seatbelt chime is another issue.... I am going to need a wiring diagram for sure!
