I've been driving this Baojun 510 for almost three years and have struggled with the daytime running light issue. The factory design makes them automatically turn on when starting the car, with no direct way to turn them off. If you want to force them off, you need to open the engine compartment fuse box and remove the 15A F18 fuse. But this will trigger a warning light on the dashboard, and you'll have to see the fault message every time you start the car, which is quite annoying. Some people have tried modifying the wiring to install a switch, but this caused headlight contact issues, resulting in over 300 yuan in repair costs. Honestly, keeping the daytime running lights on does improve safety, especially on highways during cloudy or rainy days when oncoming vehicles can spot you from far away. My advice is not to mess with it unnecessarily.
