There is no fuse. Canadian models cannot have their drls disabled

Has be a fuse, otherwise a malfunction would cause a fire rather than a blown fuse. Anyway I have a USA 2008 ISF model and just looked in my owners manual. It says there are two types of underhood fuse boxes, (type A) on right side of car (standing in front and facing toward the windshield, and (type B) on the right side. The manual says that in the Type A box it is fuse No. 8, a 10 amp fuse. However this fuse also controls a number of other things among them Fog Lights, power windows and etc. In the type B box it is a 15 amp fuse in location 19 and only controls "Headlight Beams".

Hope this helps you.

What you're looking for if you want the fuse is the one labelled H-LP UPR, it will either be 15A or 20A and is plugged into the Front Controller inside the fuse box behind the LH headlight.
