My RX450h is approved for the Italian market and has not lights DRL active.
I ask you experts how to enable this very important function.
Thanks

 

No one can help me?
How can I do to activate the DRL?

 

Have you tried your dealer?

 

yes, more than a dealer.
Everyone says that I can not activate DRL.
I can not believe that on all other machines I had DRL and now Lexus no...

 

is it required to have DRL in Italy?

yes, as of February 7 is required throughout Europe.
I was stopped by the police and they told me that.

 

interesting.

 

Can you tell me if there is a kit to do what I ask?
Maybe just a few present replace some components.

 

Why not turn on the headlights?

 

I want to thank in public vesonline.
has solved my problem with a relay to be installed in the socket EOBD
Now my RX450H keeping the lights on "AUTO"is always on day and night.
Vesonline Thanks!

 

I have exactly the same problem. I just imported my RX 450h from Germany where they do not use DRLs into Finland where we must always have either headlights or DRLs on.

Could you please elaborate a litte bit more how you solved the problem by changing a relay? Which relay it was exactly and what was the replacement relay type code? Where did you get the replacement relay?

It seems to be very easy for the American versions of RX to enable/disable DRL just by using standard Nav functionalty which is there in the U.S version as shown in this pdf:

It is strange that my European version of RX do not have Vehicle Customization -screen available in the Nav at all. In my version there is the screen "Vehicle Settings" with only two buttons availabe: "Maintenance" and "Lexus Park Assist" but the third button between them "Vehicle Customization" is totally missing! Anyone have any idea how it could be made visible? Before anyone suggests: yes, I do have the other way to access some of the vehicle settings using streering wheel buttons, but unfortunately the options there do not include DRL enable. :-(
