Defect
On certain vehicles, the daytime running lamp circuit contains a resistor that is corroding. If this occurs, the resistive element can open, resulting in a loss of daytime running lamp (DRL) function. If DRL function is lost, there may be reduced vehicle conspicuity, which could increase the risk of a vehicle crash.
Safety Risk
No risk description available.
Remedy
Dealers will install a sealed daytime running lamp resistor.
