2020 ST and I turned on the amber DRL's with no issues and now I am trying to turn off the white DRL's but I am getting an Incorrect checksum warning. Totally afraid to click the YES to continue. Do I just need to click YES?

Changes are as follows:

Additional Change : If you don't want the White DRL
Module : As-Built Modules BdyCM
Change : 726-42-01 x4x4 xxxx xxXX (original value was 0303 and new 0404)

Don’t be scared. Go into the coded format and save the original version. If something messes up just load the stock file.

Anyways, there a bit more to it than just changing those numbers to get the strip off.

there’s more to it than just that. If you’re not familiar with forscan DONT just go in and change stuff. I’ve tried helping guys who thought “it can’t be that hard to get Bambi mode” and changed EVERYTHING that said low beam, fog light, high beam….did the same for DRLs.

Hi Guys,

Any help for me. I tried to enable the Amber DRL using info from prior posts in my 2024 ST but for some reason it will not work when in park/neutral/drive - auto headlights, etc...

726-42-01 x4x4 xxxx xxXX - Sets the White DRL to fixed position, meaning they're dim when the headlight is on, and off when the car is in normal drive mode, daytime.
726-43-01 x1x1 xxxx xxXX - Sets Turn to Turn and DRL

Curious if I am doing something wrong. I can get the DRLs to come on however no solid Amber.

Thanks for any possible guidance.

Amber DRL / NO white DRL
(only works during the daytime, when your lamps turn on automatically at night you will have NO DRL, all other functions will still work completely):

726-42-01 x0x0 xxxx xxxx
726-43-01 x1x1 xxxx xxxx
