Changing headlight wiring to have DRL
Posted: Sat Dec 01, 2018 3:37 am
Hi
I have a 2003 Polo. Right now if engine is off and I turn the round switch, lights go on and buzzer rings.
In Switzerland we are obliged to have either DRL or headlights on even during the day.
Is there a way to rewire the circuit so one can leave the switch always on and the headlights would go on only when the engine is turned on?
Or a relay that turns the headlights on when engine is on? This path seems more difficult as the halogens do concume quite a bit, might be necessary to add a fuse?
Alternatively can one tweak so the from fog lights stay on when engine is on? Maybe that is the easiest solution?
Many thanks
