how to enable the daytime running lights?
hey guys,

I imported a 2500 Cummins from Texas and due to the Canadian safety standards I have to enable the daytime running lights.

is ther an easy way to do this?

I have heard of guys jumping a output from one relay to another in the fuse box?

all help appreciated!

cheers.

I imported my 05 and took it to my dodge dealer in canada. Charged 1/2 hour labour to activate the daytime running lights. At the same time they activated the hi speed idle which you can turn on with the cruise control when idling.

Wildone is correct, the dealer has to change the country code to CA.

If its the 3rd Gen truck, you need STARSCAN with the latest revision of software.

Does changing the country code to Canada affect the speedometer? I like in the States but would like to have DRL.
