1997 Pontiac Grand Prix

[Tarrytown SS427s]

FWD GP's are good cars.. I have a few 1st gens myself, one red and one blue 91 SE both equipped with the seldom seen M27 5 speed. Good luck with yours!

If you want to disable the DRLs but not the automatic headlights, unplug the voltage reducing diode in the DRL circuit. It is a large, finned object located on the outer wall on the left side under the dash. It is visible through the small access panel the you can see when the driver's door is open. If you unplug this diode, you will turn off the DRLs and not affect anything else. If you do not wish to have the automatic headlamps or DRLs active, simply pull the appropriate fuse in the fuse block located to the right of the glove box.

Congrats Jochen! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] Yeah those darned Daytime Running Lights [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img] . The Europeans do NOT appreciate those. We took delivery on a U.S. market Volvo wagon back in '95 in Germany. We were constantly be &quot;flashed&quot; by the locals on the autobahn to TURN THOSE DARNED THINGS OFF!! Gate guards at the bases over there were none too pleased either till we figured out how to disable them! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/blush.gif[/img]

We've been stuck w/ factory DRL systems here in Canada since 1990 model cars!.
Most but not all vehicles switch the DRL's off when you apply the E-Brake but obviously a useless feature when driving..
Last weekend we took the family Caravan to see Shrek at the Drive-In and w/ all the mosquitoes had to keep the windows closed and periodically run the A/C..
I thought twice as I set the E-Brake just one click to shut the DRL's off being auto-trans vehicle E-Brakes often seize w/ seldom use..
