Hi.
I am new to the forum and Forscan, that being the reason I am very careful about making changes. I have figured out to activate the “Silent mode” menu and getting it working. Proud moment!
The problem I have concerns the DRL’s. The Namibian (South African) Rangers DRL are setup to be on at all times, which is a real pain. I would like to have the DRL’s off when the Light switch is in the OFF position and only working in the AUTO position. I have tried a few settings, but no luck. I tried looking for old posts concerning the topic but could not find any. Apologies if I missed it. Please help!

Try changing this value to the opposite of what you currently have.

Thank you for the replies.
Steward, I did the proposed change and the DRL’s switched off, that is until I put the ignition on the next time. Then everything is back to normal.
I then made the changes as proposed in the video link easyflow posted. Problem solved! I now even have a menu option to totally switch the DRL’s off!
Thank you guys!
