Oh really? crap when did it start happening to people, I haven't had an issue yet and I did the same to my fj no issues...

I'm not sure if/when it started happening, but I read about some having the issue in the Resistor Removal DIY thread. I thought it was easier to just go through techstream.

When I bring my car in for service ill have them disable it just in case... Time to research! Thanks!

ya def, i mean DRL not working it doesn't bother me however i just want everything working since is a new car.

oh ya i forgot to mention, i think is start not working is when i hardwire my radar into the fuse (i just guessing, didn't pay attention to that until i notices). I'm sure hardwire doesn't make the DRL not working because i did unplug the fuse for the radar to see if that cause the problem and the solution is not.

Well, benlaz88, I'm guessing your problem is in that area. How did you tap into the fuse circuit?

If you used a "add-a-circuit" type thing, did you install it the "proper" way? Best I recall ...one can put them in backwards ...

well i put a spare fuse in the empty socket and use my hardwire kit to tap it with it. The fuse is insert properly.

Problem solve. I change it to a 20amp fuse under the DRL socket and its work! I hope this will help you solve your problem too!

I removed the DRL resistor from behind the bumped and had NO issues what-so-ever. Its also a heavy ass resistor, pretty crazy.
