Headlights won't turn off

Do you have day time running lamps? How long have you owned the van? Is the van from Canada (check drivers door VIN tag on door by latch. Look for a Maple leaf on white vin tag), if so call dealer, give them V.I.N. and have them check for recalls.

It could be day time running lamp module concern. Other than that, multi-funtion switch issue????

Good luck.

It is from Canada, so I believe it has day time running lights. It's not my van, but has been around for a while. If I disconnect the DTR light module, will this fix my problem? Or do I need to buy a new module. Also does anyone know where I will find the module in this model? I looked a little yesterday and didn't find it. I also didn't know what the module looked like exactly. Thanks again

It is up by the radiator, I believe on the left side area. It will be a black box. I think if you disconnect it, the head light will go off, but not work at all. I would check for an open recall first on the van. I think I have heard of a by-pass kit for the module and American driving. I would contact local dealer and/or parts department.

Good luck..

Yes the DRL module is in the lf of the van. The Canada ones have the module, the US ones have a dummy plug that just jumps the wires . If you get a smart parts guy, he can find and order you the plug, and you wont need to buy the module. If not call a junk yard, explain where it is, and tell them its just a dummy plug that connects to the harness.

The more I think about this, I can remember ordering a plug and tech jumpered a temporary wire, so head lights worked until plug or module was in stock..

It can be a multi function switch or an autolamp concern, if so equiped. Try pulling these fuses, in the inside of the van, first pull fuse 38, see if they go out, then pull both of these, #4 & #10 fuse, see if it goes out.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
