Is there a way to turn off headlights during day and only run DRL on 2019 Laramie Ram?

It's in your radio settings. Turn off the DRL, the LED trim ring isn't a DRL, and is always on regardless, so turning off the DRL in your settings will give you what you want.

Thanks. I turned off DRL but looks like headlights are still on.

Those trim lights are always on. The DRLs are the headlights at a lower brightness. If you turn them off in the settings your headlights should be completely off.

They aren't bright enough to be considered DRL.

Similar to "Angel Eyes" on Bimmers, they are an aesthetic thing really.
My BMW rings are the DRLs on my BMW. They are LED and quite bright. I had them on my 2011 328 that got totalled and replaced with this truck and have them on my current 2017 X5.

Absolutely, I was referring to the older "Angel Eyes", they were on my E46 and E90, I had both the halos and DLRs. On the E90s, you could turn off your DLRs and just run the Halos by themselves through idrive setting.

Just like those early gen Angel Eyes, the RAMs headlight LEDs are not bright enough to count as DLRs.

Where is it located in radio. It’s not under lights on my truck…

Există vreo modalitate de a stinge farurile în timpul zilei și de a rula DRL doar pe Laramie Ram 2019?
I have the same problem when I start the engine, the low beam is on permanently and I can't turn it off to run only in daylight, I can't find it in the settings, can it be solved with coding?

Glad this thread is here. If my DRL are on, I can not turn the lights off in any switch position. In fact if I turn the knob to the “O” position, the headlights stay on and the trim lights get brighter. The headlights stay on in the parking light position too. Now if my DRL are off the headlights are on as expected, the trim is low lit in the parking position, but the trim is extremely bright in th “O” position. This doesn’t seem right. Can anyone verify this?
