tryton1000 Posted December 25, 2015 Report Share Posted December 25, 2015 I have found when I have the either turn signal on, the corresponding DSR Light goes off. Is this normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xK317Hx Posted December 25, 2015 Report Share Posted December 25, 2015 Yes. It's the law I believe. Audi does this as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted December 25, 2015 Report Share Posted December 25, 2015 Don't think it's mandated by law but most mfrs seem to be doing it including Audi and Chrysler. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Halstead Posted December 26, 2015 Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 It is a law...can't find my references right now but a drl and turn signal when placed within a certain mm are required to function this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Halstead Posted December 26, 2015 Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 Not really a law but a DOT issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted December 26, 2015 Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 That would make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tryton1000 Posted December 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 Thanks for the replies!, It just looks like I have a light out when i'm turning. I have never seen this before so I was baffled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any new charger/300/audi...almost any car with DRL or an LED strip in the headlight will go off when turning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackEdition Posted December 30, 2015 Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 I saw this first on Chrysler cars a couple of years back, and honestly, I think it's ridiculous. Why do those DRLs go off? is it so people can see the turn signals easier and brighter? It doesn't make sense to me because you can still see them easily even with the DRLs on.

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted December 30, 2015 Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 (edited) With the DTBL "DRL" (at least on the SHO), you can get the switchback capability with turn signals, so that is very cool. Looks like the 2011-14 Edge product has it too: http://drivebright.com/home/shop/ford-edge-led/ - Unique clear turn signal LED light bar with integrated high output amber turn signal LEDs. - LED turn signal function is easily disabled for white LED DRL only operation Edited December 30, 2015 by WWWPerfA_ZN0W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
