Daylight running lights RR Classic

#1 Post by THEarturo » Thu Jan 17, 2019 11:46 am

My 1995 RR Classic that I purchased in San Diego is in transit now, and I have a question.

Since California does not require daylight running lights, how much of a job is it to have lights hooked up to operate when started. I gather for the newer Rovers, it can be adjusted in the computer.

Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks

There is no facility in a RRC for DRL,s. Canadian spec ones were retrofitted. Easy enough to wire them in.

The simplest is to buy a DRL module. They are $10 or so. They measure the voltage and do not turn the lights on until they detect the alternator is charging.

Thanks guys.

I had contacted Rovalution and talked to Ben, who has the module and they will also do the provincial inspection so I can get the Rover registered.ak
