1999 Chevy Tahoe - Daytime Running Lights

I'm trying to disable the Daytime Running Lights on my 1999 Chevy Tahoe 2DR. I found out that it's hardwired and there's no other remedy for it (someone told me to try hitting the dome override button 4x but that didn't work). I was wondering if anyone had a wiring diagram so I can snip the wire thats been causing me this paaain. Haha thanks.

on the early body style there was a huge resistor under the dash beside the steering colum. It was easy to find, it had a two pin plug, unplug it and no lights. I haven't had that request on the new ones yet. it might be the same???

Try this and if it's not applicable, post your results.

On some newer GM models it may be possible to press the "Dome Override" button 3 or 4 times within 6 seconds. This will disable the DRLs while the vehicle is running. When it is restarted, the DRL function will reset to "always on." We've heard that this works on full-size and S-series trucks.

I believe most recent GM, 99/00/01, use a VCR tape sized DRL module that will be under the dash, behind radio, glovebox, over pedals, etc. There are two 8 pin connectors, the smaller blue connector C2; A is GND, B is NC, (jump A to B to disable) or pin C (pink) is ignition power, if fused separately, just remove fuse or disconnect power wire. Here's a site with excellent directions and pictures. Failing to find the module, there is a headlamp relay (5 pins) located in the engine compartment or near the steering column, and if you bend over one of the coil pins, #85 or #86, or the normally open contact #87, that will disable the DRL. (#30 and #87a are needed)

• 93-97 Blazer, Fuse located?? HI beams in series
• 94-97 S-10, Fuse panel, left end of dash
• 97 Chev Lumina, Monte Carlo #33, fuse in RH side of dash.
• 98 Cadillac, Fuse under hood
• 98 Sunfire, supposedly computer controlled "owner option" fuse?
• 99 Pont Grand Prix; has 16 pin DRL module, fuse removes DRLs and Auto-ON (there is also a fuse for air bags, SRS)
• 2000 Camaro, direction signal DRL module behind radio

One sneaky trick to try is to depress the emergency brake pedal 1 or 2 clicks,in most cases this will trick the DRL module into thinking that the e-brake is ingaged and cut off the DRL's,this is if you can stand for the e-brake dash light to be on all the time.
