How to Turn Off the Daytime Running Lights on the X-Trail?
2 Answers
The method to turn off the daytime running lights on the X-Trail is as follows: 1. Insert the ignition key with the ignition switch in the off position; 2. Move the turn signal lever to the left turn position and pull the high beam lever upward and hold it; 3. Turn on the ignition switch and hold for about 5 seconds until you hear a prompt sound, then release the ignition switch and return it to its original position to turn off the daytime running lights. Taking the 2021 X-Trail as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4675mm, width 1820mm, height 1722mm, wheelbase 2706mm, fuel tank capacity 65l, trunk capacity 700l, curb weight 1489kg, and the body structure is a 5-door, 5-seat SUV.
I used to drive a Nissan X-Trail and always wanted to turn off the daytime running lights because they were too bright. On my 2021 model, I solved it via the steering wheel buttons: after starting the vehicle, press the left button to enter the dashboard menu, find the vehicle settings, select the lighting options, and you'll see the daytime running lights switch. A confirmation prompt will appear on the screen after turning it off. Actually, daytime running lights are a safety feature—keeping them on can reduce daytime collision risks by 30%, and they've been widely used in Nordic countries for a long time. I occasionally turn them off temporarily when camping in parks to avoid disturbing others, but most of the time I leave them on. If you can't find the setting button, it's best to check the owner's manual or ask the 4S店 technician during your next maintenance, as the location may vary by model year. The key point is not to randomly disconnect wires or modify the circuit, as that could void the warranty or cause issues.
