3. Check to ensure that the Daytime Running Light (DRL) system and Fog Lamps function properly - both illuminate through the same lamps.

^ Daytime Running Light System

In Canada, certain regulations require vehicles to be driven with lights illuminated during daytime operation. It is for that reason that the daytime running lights (fog lamps) are automatically illuminated when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position. The daytime running lights are switched OFF under the following conditions:

when the headlamps are switched ON

when the parking brake is applied

when the flash-to-pass system is used

^ Fog Lamps
The Fog Lamps only operate when the headlamps are on "Low Beam". To activate fog lamps, push the button on the control panel below the climate controls. An indicator light on the button will illuminate. Push the button again to turn the fog lamps off.

4. Complete the installation by reversing the removal procedures.
