Thank you very much for the quick reply. Would you happen to have a photo of your actual set-up? I've never used a diode before because my wiring skills is just not at that level. Currently have the LED+ wire hooked to the DRL resistor + for DRL but it obviously does not work with the BeatSonic always-on module.

Not sure the images will help all that much.

I don't remember if I modified the Beatsonic module pins, but I did splice the diode into the high beam power from there


The pin diagram should be accurate

I didn't even think about using the diodes on the module itself, just goes to show my lack of knowledge in the field of wiring. Thank you for taking the time to send the photos and pinout. You and the many other members are the reason why this forum is still thriving.

With the photos, I think it is making more sense. Will dive into this this weekend. If I have more questions, hope you don't mind me sending another message? Thanks again @EndlessAzure !
