Disable Drl

[tlbassetti]

How do I disable the daytime running lights in

my 2000 GMC Sierra 3500?

should be able to pull the fuse or relay that powers them in the underhood fuse box.. that's how I disabled mine in my 2000 Z71

don't care for them myself.. was a good idea when they first came out, just like high mount stop lamps, but now everyone has them so they just blend into the horizon..

 

 

some interesting reading on them.. though the person posting the site is a tad bias, he does point out the good and bad with fact not too much opinion:

2000 drl's are dedicated so that site doesn't apply. I like mine I even modded them to integrate into the flashers and still function as DRL's when they're not flashing.

That cuts both drl's and the auto headlights off, of course I did the resistor trick to permanently disable auto heads in my 01 because I have HIDs. I also just got hids in the fog lights which actually just made them things useful.

Haven't tried the dome override yet. One question. Will it reset itself after the ignition is shut off and restarted? And what is meant by "dedicated"?

Is your truck gmt-400 or gmt-800? 800 have dedicated ones, and 400 give low volts to the reg low beam.

yeah the dome override 4 times shuts all lights off. yes it does reset itself every time.

 

 

 

he knows what dome override is so i think hes sporting a GMT800

400's had the dome override also since 1995. I forgot 2000 3500's were only gmt-400s.

hmm i guess i dont remember the domeoverride on my gmt400. then again my 99 GMT400 didnt have DRL's or they didnt work

all 400 had drls factory since 96or 95 I forget which, I think 95. Anyway to disable them go into the in cab fuse box and pull fuse 15.

thank you, I couldn't remember the fuse # when I posted, it's been 11 years since I owned my 1996 GMT400.
