How can I mod the DRL to have it on at all time? (for 2013 models)

How about including the side parking lights also? I'd like to keep the DRL and parking lights both on all the time. I know I can set stalk to parking lights so both DRL and parking lights to turn on, but the taillights will come on also and that I don't want.

 

Did you get a chance to piece together a possible scheme for a potiental mod?

 

Sorry the ebay link for that ATM fuse tap expired. Can you provide me with another working one? Want to make sure I don't buy the wrong one.

Thanks!

Hello,
I need an answer. With using of the fuse adapter put in + "ready" mode and the other side in the right place of relay socket will the DRL goes OFF with switching the Headlights ON/AUTO?

You have it plugged to the top connector instead of the middle female connector. Plug to middle connector and it'll work like a charm.

 

Bought a wire tap with a fuse and ended up using your paperclip idea. Works great! Thanks for your post. Helped me for sure.

 

Hello, I am a newbie here. My wife drives a 2012 Prius, I would like the DRL always on even at night. When you get a chance, can you send a pic for the MOD?. I like the idea of the "poor man's fog light". Thanks in Advance

 

Hello, Gilbert. I am a newbie here. When you get a chance, would you be able to post a pic of the MOD that you did? Thanks in Advance!

 

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!
Super Simple, Free, and IT WORKS!!!!

 

What does the blue end look like

 

One end is a standard crimp on spade connector that plugs in where the center pin from the relay used to go, The other is bare wire inserted along with the headlight fuse.

 

I did this mod on my 2013 Prius years ago. It has worked flawlessly over the years. Recently I helped a neighbor do the same on his 2015 Prius. Here are some photos if it helps anyone else.

 

If doing the mod be sure the vehicle is off and not powered on to avoid throwing any possible check hybrid system error code. If you should get a message disconnect the 12 volt trunk battery for 15 minutes and the message should disappear.
