There is a switch above the steering column that you need to flip back. I think it's there so you can have a little light when camping without draining the battery as much but I'm not sure.
In the 2003 Subaru Outback, the daytime running lights (DRL) are controlled automatically and do not have a separate switch. They typically activate when the vehicle is in gear and the ignition is on. If you want to disable them, you may need to check the fuse box or consult the owner's manual for instructions.
Daytime running light. Usually mean the daytime running lights have a problem
Your question needs to be in a complete sentence in order to be answered correctly on this site.
The question is why do you think it should? Is there an overheating problem with your Outback?
See your user manual, its great for help with all the basic maintenance, but in some vehicals it can't be disabled
Yes, inasmuch as they turn off when you shut off the engine and remove the ignition key; and the standard daytime running lights come on when you're driving. You have to switch from DRL to headlights with a switch, though - but in my soob I just leave my headlight switch on all the time anyway.
Daytime running light module may be the problem
I just fixed this problem , it was my daytime running light module
If you are parked with the motor running, engage the parking/emergency brake. Turn the ignition off and restart the engine. The daytime running lights should not be on.
If the Explorer is running engaging the parking brake is supposed to turn the daytime running lights off , otherwise the daytime running lights are supposed to shut off when the engine is shut off . I have a 2004, Eddie Bauer Explorer. On the light switch itself, there is a selection to turn on or off the day lights, as well as the extended, courtesy lights after ignition is turned off.
False
i checked the fuses and don't know if this is the problem---should i lood for somethin else?
