If it only turned on one lamp, that's a problem.
The FR-S DRL is actually the high beam illuminated at low (half?) power. That's why it looks yellow. This is actually a good economical use of available resources. The high beam is used at full power only a fraction of the time. Operated at low power, it doesn't cut into the life of the bulb. Running all the lights during the day uses up the life of all the bulbs.
Now, as far as disconnecting the DRL resistor, I'm not a fan. The electrical contacts are exposed to the elements. Kill it in the software. That's why the option exists.
