i know need to cut pin 23 for the drl disable but i was messing around with the drl relay box last night and nothing is numbered. so anyone got any pictures on what i need to cut?

I had the same problem lol.. i was dumb when i first got the car. i watched a diy and instead of finding #23 (couldnt find) i cut the same color/striped wire that they did in the diy and ofcourse, it was wrong.. the only thing that happened is that the brake light doesnt come on when my ebrake is up lol

the first and last wire should be numbered. so u should see a #1 next to the first wire and #25 at the very end. i just counted from 25 to 23

look at the wires when u have them unplugged from the box on the side u should see a #1 and #25 at the end im 100% positive that the numbers are there. the wire is red with a blue stripe going up it

took forever to find the wire. i cut it. lights still come on so done deal. thanks for the help. dtrue you said you have numbers on your clip so im wondering maybe if your car was built at a different time/place then my car.

not sure but mine had a small number 1 and 25 took forever for me to find it

It takes a while to do the disabling. Had to take apart glove compartment along with looking upside down for the box.

Vamp has a DIY on his site which i used and disabled my DRL. I'll see if I can get pictures of the box and post it up.

Vamps site wouldn't let me look at the diy section some weird shit came out and it wouldn't let me look at it. I was gonna put the link for vamps site but saw no point if it was messed up

This is the most frustrating project I've done with this car yet. I've taken out the glove box and found the drl box, but cannot get the wiring harness out. I unplugged the yellow cable (airbag I think) to get better access but nothing. I even tried wedging a flat screwdriver between the clip and the box. Is there nothing I can do to get this plug out?

DjiNN · 09-24-2009, 07:23 PM

You dont take the Wire harness out you take the WHOLE BOX out. It should slide up or down in order to remove box. When you have the box removed you look for #23. If you cant find 23 then count then numbers.

AJW6 · 09-25-2009, 01:16 AM

Ohh, that makes sense. Nice, I will finish that up tomorrow then. Oh and am I the only one who can't access vamps site? I feel like everyone always posts links but I always get an error.

MadaGnik · 09-25-2009, 08:47 PM

Its down for everyone I think. The site works but theres no pictures lol
