High Beam as DRL

  1. According to the traffic regulations of Russia it is allowed to use as DRL:
  2. DRL scheme of high beam headlights
  3. What happens if you use this scheme?
  4. Are there any cons of using the far, but not DRL?

All drivers know that in the daytime it is necessary to drive with the headlights on, in order to protect themselves on the freeway, to stand out more on the road, thereby avoiding the possibility of an accident. The use of DRL provides the expressiveness of the car, so road users better see you from afar, at a greater distance. Thus, each driver sooner or later thinks about how to equip his car. daytime running lights or invent them an alternative. All drivers know that in the daytime it is necessary to drive with the headlights on, in order to protect themselves on the freeway, to stand out more on the road, thereby avoiding the possibility of an accident

According to the traffic regulations of Russia it is allowed to use as DRL:


  • Dipped beam is a big power consumption, and you can also forget about switching on.
  • PTF (fog lights) - are too low, and they do not provide maximum lightness, because often the light - yellow, and in sunny weather it is difficult to see.
  • DRL - not on all cars are nominally, but have the maximum luminous intensity, due to which a car is better indicated on the road. Consume little energy. But It is worth noting that not every driver will want to install DRLs, because if they are not provided for regularly, then it is necessary to make changes to the design and integrity of the car’s factory assembly. This option is ideal, but still, many are looking for other alternatives.
  • High beam in the polkanal - an interesting option, because it will provide catchiness, and due to the use of the glow is not at full power, it does not consume much energy and therefore spends little fuel. It is worth noting that with the correct wiring diagram, the inclusion of a high beam can be made automatic. In this we try to understand this article.

Many drivers use high beam as a DRL. Connect high beam lamps and use at 30% of the light intensity. To make the high beam instead of DRL, you must use a special scheme. According to the proposed scheme, you can independently make a DRL from a high beam.

DRL scheme of high beam headlights


  1. Relay number 1 - you can use any, having 5 contacts or a closed 4-pin. Located in BZiK.
  2. All connected wires must be placed in the main break, that is, make the connection in parallel.
  3. Pin 85 - must be connected to the "minus" electric polarity, that is, to the 6-pin CM connector having pin 6.
  4. Pin 86 - it must be connected to the “plus” polarity on the side signal light, that is, it is an 8-pin AN connector having a pin 1.
  5. Pins 30 and 88 must be connected to the main beam with a “plus” polarity (8-pin AN connector, pins 7 and 8 for the right and left headlights, respectively).
  6. Relay number 2 - there should be any, having five contacts.
  7. Contact 30 - connect to the far headlamp with the polarity "minus".
  8. Pins 85 and 87 must be connected to the headlight unit with a minus polarity.
  9. Contact 86 must be connected to the polarity "minus" dimensions. If you have too short wires in the headlight unit, then additional wiring can be drawn from the BZiK.
  10. Contact 88 must be connected to the polarity "plus" in the BZiK after the ignition. That is, at this point it is necessary to stretch the wire into the headlight unit (6-pin CM connector having pin 1).
  11. Relay number 1 - should be in BZiK.
  12. Relay number 2 - should be located in the left headlight.
  13. And finally, control 86 must be powered from the positive polarity of the dimensions. This is done taking into account the fact that the long-range, PTF or near is activated only when the dimensions are luminous.

When turning on the low beam mode or high beam:

  • Relay number 1 is engaged in the closure of the circuit and the far-beam lamp, thus, ensure the work at a regular level. That is, if the near light is working, the high beam lamps do not work, but if you use the far beam not as a DRL, then they will provide a 100% illumination.
  • Relay number 2 - sends a signal to the left high-beam headlamp with a polarity of "minus".

Relay number 2 - sends a signal to the left high-beam headlamp with a polarity of minus

What happens if you use this scheme?


  • Automatic operation is provided.
  • With the revitalization of the engine, that is, the generator - far instead of DRL burns at 30% of its intensity, while the dashboard and parking lights do not work.
  • With the forced activation of the low beam, that is, with the onset of twilight - the main beam is turned off, the low beam operation is activated, as well as the dimensions and the dashboard is highlighted.
  • If you blink farther - they give out the intensity of the glow at 100%, besides, no delays are observed.
  • If you forcibly turn on the high beam mode - the work is 100%, according to the standard principle of operation.
  • Car with such DRL - catchy and noticeable on the track, even in bright sunlight.

All that has been listed is the undoubted advantages of such a scheme and such car equipment.

Are there any cons of using the far, but not DRL?


  • Work on the connection and implementation of the scheme is quite laborious and can take more than 2 hours. At the same time, in order to do everything correctly, at least basic knowledge and skills of mechanics and work with electricians are necessary.
  • Additional tools are needed (for example, if you buy DRLs and install them, then it is faster, easier and you do not need a special arsenal of tools) - pliers, stationery knife, minus screwdriver, hex. Of the additional materials will need - two relays, a wire for 4 meters with a cross section of 1.5 mm, electrical tape, as well as about twenty pieces of connectors "mother-father."
  • It is worth noting that such alterations can also be regarded as interference in the design of the car and changes in the standard, factory wiring. But, under the hood, you can see only two wires, moreover, if you use black electrical tape, you can even not notice them.
  • In the case of heavy rain and a reduction in the quality of illumination, the car does not automatically switch to the low light mode, and, accordingly, the visibility is extremely poor. In this case, you yourself will need to take care to forcibly turn on the low beam mode.

Conclusion

It is worth noting that this is not the worst option to make DRL, you can even say that it is a decent type of lights. But , given that the complexity of the circuit requires skills, additional tools are needed, and there are also obvious shortcomings, so it is recommended to use standalone diode DRLs. In addition, only LED DRL models will be able to fully identify and highlight your car on the highway. The snow-white light of lanterns does not lose its flashiness under any conditions, therefore, with such elements you are in greater safety.
