elomo64 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Hey all! Been doing some electrical work on my car, trying to fix the absolute mess the previous owner did, and I came upon this unplugged harness: From what I can see in the service manual, this is connector B96 - Daytime Running Light Module. Just to be 100% correct, can anyone confirm? There's also this cut wire under the steering column: I can't seem to find what connector this is on the service manual. Any idea? Car is a 2005 LGT MT.

blackobxt Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 That is the daytime running light module and it’s extremely common for people to unplug it to disable the DRL. I don’t know off the top of my head what that orange wire is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elomo64 Posted October 25, 2023 Author Share Posted October 25, 2023 I see. I currently have an issue that the left turn signal turns on solid when I turn the headlights on, and blinks fast while they are on. If the headlights are off, it works normally. I suspect a grounding issue tbh, but I'm wondering if the DRL could have anything to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infosecdad Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Are the turn signal bulbs replaced with LEDs? Sometimes that will cause issues depending on the LEDs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haze Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 I had a bunch of exterior lighting issues on my '07 with similar wiring hackery. That small plug under the steering column is for the park light switch. I can't remember what the idea behind that modification is but it actually wasn't the main cause of my lighting issues. There's a bundle of wires tucked into the left front fender above the wheel well liner. In there is a solder joint that breaks down over time that I had to fix. Unfortunately, I don't remember what color that wire is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
