    If you use it for short trips be sure to take it on the freeway 2-3 times a month for a good 45 minute cruise while the engine is up to full temperature.

    Wiring aftermarket DRL lighting so that they turn on during the day but off at night….

    There have been members who have reported issues with wiring loads to a bulb then to a chassis ground. In part it has to do with voltage biasing of the PWM circuitry that controls the lights on the truck. Where the ground path is referenced is important.

    Wiring aftermarket DRL lighting so that they turn on during the day but off at night….

    Take the resistance reading on the headlight pins, this is to determine which ground is the one wired to the marker lights. Being all the bulbs are monitored, using the headlight ground wire there's less probability of problems with false bulb out errors occuring.

    either one should work but unplug the headlight and see which one shows the least resistance between it and terminal #2. Just taking a guess it will probably be #13.

    Wiring aftermarket DRL lighting so that they turn on during the day but off at night….

    There is two wires(positive and negative) that go to any light bulb, same goes for the marker light. You'll run both to the relay (one to each terminal, not both together) Technically the marker light will have three but one of them is the turn signal, don't use that one.

    Wiring aftermarket DRL lighting so that they turn on during the day but off at night….

    NO..do not use the 87 terminal at all. The DRL wire goes to 87a and the supply power wire from the fuse tap goes to 30. 85 goes to the marker light, 86 is the ground (best to use the same ground as the marker light).

    Wiring aftermarket DRL lighting so that they turn on during the day but off at night….

    Using the example picture you posted above but instead use terminal 87a. The red would still go-to a fuse, the blue wire to the DRLs. The green and black wires would get wired to the running lights. Wired this way will turn the DRLs off when your running lights are on.

    Please please help grind and clunking

    Just a guess but sounds like the rear differential has puked. Only reason the truck moves in 4X4 is the front drive is pulling the truck.

    Wiring aftermarket DRL lighting so that they turn on during the day but off at night….

    Either relay will work. You'll wire the DRL power using the #30 and #87a (NC contacts) and then wire the coil(85 & 86) to the marker or headlights. That will turn the DRLs off when the marker or headlights are turned on.

    That's on a Gen5 DT body truck, the OP has a Gen4 DS trucks.

    Aftermarket Rims and Air Suspension

    Either one of those tire sizes is basically the same overall diameter (33") as the factory 20" rims. Guys have gone to 35" tires with just leveling on the Gen4 DS trucks. How the 24s fit will depend on the rim backspace/offset.

    The normally closed terminal is 87a. Need to use a SPDT relay that has the fifth terminal 87a

    Yukon carrier assembly for zf215mm front axle

    The gear ratio will depend on how big of tires you plan on running, what size?

    question about trailer connection

    @markabby you would need to add something like an isolation solenoid to turn the +12V off going to the plug or just unplug it when parking overnight. There's just a fuse direct from the battery that goes the +12V in the 7 pin plug

    Who else leaves their alfaOBD MX+ plugged in?

    If it's any of the OBDLink Bluetooth OBD readers, you can leave them plugged in without issue. They'll sense the truck is off an put themselves to sleep. I usually leave my MX+ plugged in all the time. You do want to disconnect from using apps(AlfaOBD, Torque, Fusion, etc) that communicate...

    2016 Rebel with "upgraded" rearview mirror.

    That mirror is upside down, that single bump on the edge of the mirror should be on the bottom. That's where the "911" button usually is.

    Looking for a headlight wiring diagram for trucks with quad headlights….

    I'm relaying what other people have reported when enabling the high or low beams as DRLs along with using the drop out option. The factory highs or lows don't use the drop out option. I don't even think the factory projector headlights use the dedicated DRL wire, it was probably included for a...

    Looking for a headlight wiring diagram for trucks with quad headlights….

    Not sure if it's a default but that's usually what I see around here and on Canadian trucks that venture over to Detroit. I think the reduced intensity is about 6 or 7 volts

    Looking for a headlight wiring diagram for trucks with quad headlights….

    There have been a few people report the high and low beams DRLs stop working when used with the drop out option.

    Looking for a headlight wiring diagram for trucks with quad headlights….

    There's an option for "Dedicated" that is a separate wire which allows a drop out option that turns off when the turn signals are activated.

    Looking for a headlight wiring diagram for trucks with quad headlights….

    The trucks with the Quads (or reflector type) headlights do not have the dedicated DRL wires up to the headlights. The SLT platform and above should have the Dedicated DRL wires at the plug under the fuse box. That where I added the pigtails to add the Dedicated DRL wires. Read through this post...

    Installing DRL strip with built in turn signal wire help

    You would need to change the DRL location to Dedicated. Also enable the DRL drop out. That will have the DRL wires energized when the vehicle is in gear and then turn off when the turn signals are activated.

    @Bam930878 just throwing in my $0.02 about the situation, I'll give props to @Quick_Shifter for being one of the more invaluable resources on this forum especially when it comes to anything suspension related. He's among several people on this forum I know to tag when people are looking for...
