I just bought my accord and I don't like the day running lights, I've been searching everywhere on how to turn them off. Does anyone know how? Is it just a fuse? Do I need to take it to the dealer? Any information would be great, thanks!

 

break the bulb...

haha no.. i don't believe that there is a manual way to shut them off.. but then again im not sure.

 

You realize it's done for a safety reason?

You can see a car (even in the daytime) with it's lights on MUCH further than one without.

Why does it bother you?

 

See if this helps you. Scroll down in the link:

Both of you have cars from the '90s which was before daylight running lights. Do you drive around with your lights turned on? I seriously doubt that you do, but why not, it's safer...

Think of the children that you are putting at risk by driving without your headlights on.

It still amazes me how far behind the US is in regards to vehicle and highway safety.... My GF's 91 Accord had factory DRL's. And being pulled over and given an $80 fine for not having your seat-belt on is not a new law up here..... Oh and Helmets are mandatory for motorcyclists as well. I think they call this Natural selection

This member coming on here wanting to disable a safety feature just proves that natural selection is at work all the time.


If you still want to disable them, it is just a fuse. Read your owners manual it will show you exactly where the fuse is....
