Default Want DRL's

Hi,
I just bought a 2000 Caravan Grand Sport. It does not have Daytime Running Lights. I would like to have them. Is it a computer program change? Do I have to add or replace a module? If it's a big job I'll just forget it.

It's a different turn signal flasher. That year minivan uses the turn signal bulbs for DRL.

If yours is like my 06 2500 all they had to do to get me DRL was hook up the star scan tool and change the country code from USA to Canada.

But it's not

It's part of the turn signal flasher. They make one for just turn signals and hazzards and one that has the DRL feature incorporated into it.

FYI Dodge has a DRL feature that can be turned on in the computer so that when you put the vehicle in gear the headlights come on aka DRL, I know as I had them turn on this feature in my truck.

So he doesn't need a flasher, he just needs to turn it on in the computor? Nice to know, thanks.
