Since this is a DRL thread, can I get the DLRs to light with car on without turning switch to marker position? That's the only way I can get mine to light up.

So I ended up tearing it out the relay was shot and the dark were causing my headlights to yellow. The driver side light still has no full light just parking light / high beam light.


How hard is it to test the headlight switch? Any other ideas what it could be?

My wife's Touareg has them. No idea if mine is supposed to light up. Thought not. I see lots and lots of P cars with no DRLs, 911s and Bxtrs.
