Where is the BMW daytime running light switch?
2 Answers
Car starts will automatically turn on, there is no separate switch for daytime running lights. Here is relevant information: 1. Introduction: Daytime running lights (DRL) are designed to signal the presence of your vehicle to others during daylight hours, installed on both sides of the front end. 2. Function: DRLs are not for illuminating the road for the driver, but to make others aware of an approaching vehicle, falling under the category of signal lights. 3. Specifications: As per standards, daytime running lights must be white in color and meet specific chromaticity requirements.
My previous experience with BMW models is that daytime running lights usually don't have a separate physical switch. They are mostly automatically activated to enhance driving safety. However, you can adjust them in the vehicle settings menu. The specific location is to enter the settings menu on the central control screen, then select the lights or vehicle lighting options, where there is a daytime running lights switch to control its status. I encountered a similar issue before and searched for a long time, only to find that BMW designed it this way to simplify operation and avoid driver distraction. I suggest you try this method first. If it's not in the menu or not working, it might be due to a system software update needed or a fuse issue. It's best to check the owner's manual or contact a 4S store for inspection. Never force the daytime running lights off, as they make your car more noticeable to others during the day, reducing accident risks. Additionally, some new models allow adjusting light settings via a mobile app, which is quite convenient.
