DRL problem, HELP PLEASE! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hentai · 02-17-2015, 01:42 AM

So suddenly my right DRL won't work anymore for some reason.
I have a 2015 frs which i just bought barely a month ago.
I checked the fuses and all the connections under my driver seat and everything is still new and intact. My left DRL works.. any suggestions? Or should I just bring it back to my dealership and let them handle it?

Thanks guys

Maybe your high beam bulb is burnt out, try switching the bulbs and see if your right DRL is working. Unless you're talking about dealer/aftermarket installed DRL then I have no clue.

Yes, I've tried switching the Bulbs to LED's and the Stocks, I also used the bulb from the left highbeam headlight to the right, and it still won't work... Really frustrating :/

Do both of your high beams work?

No, my left highbeam bulb is 100% fine, works as a DRL also.

My right highbeam bulb does not work at all.

I would check the high beam bulb socket, maybe there's a bent pin or similar preventing a connection to your bulbs. If you have one you could check the voltage at the high beam connection with a multimeter.

Just go dealer and have them fix it... ?

Tried checking on it.. No reads, maybe something came off to make the connection not go through, sigh. Might just need to go to the dealer and let them take a look at it.

At this point the dealer is probably your best option, keep us updated on what happens!

Did you install aftermarket LED bulbs for DRL's? And then the problem started? I'm wondering if that's the issue. I'd be interested in finding out what the outcome of your situation is. Keep us posted.

I'd switch the bulbs back to stock before taking it to the dealer....
