Always-On™ Module for Subaru BRZ by Diode Dynamics

[Canadian Guy]

Sorry if this is reviving a dead thread. Tried contacting you guys to no avail.
I had the Always on Module installed recent. Everything works except the C light doesn't remain on when the parking brake is down and in first gear. Moved it to my friends BRZ and when he put it in Drive on this auto, nothing came on either. Only the parking light worked.

I have the Always on module and switchback installed.

With Always-On, are the boomerangs the same brightness as they are without Always-On (when parking lights or low beams are on)?

And the DRL strip LEDs stay on but cuts to 50% light output when low beams are on. But is there anyway to retain the stock behavior of the DRL strip LEDs (on as DRLs, off when low beams are on)? Like only connecting Always-On’s headlight connector but not the DRL strip connector?

Hi there! The C-lights will stay the same brightness regardless of whether the low beam on or off. The DRLs ar the only thing that dims when the low beams are activated. There's no way to cut the DRL while using the Always-On module because the module is what gives power to the DRL, and it's meant to stay "Always-On". The video I've linked below may help a bit!
