I switched my DRLs to fogs. What are the channels I need to change to revert back to the original setting of having my high beam bulbs be the DRLs? No lighting package, regular reflector housings.
Thanks.

How? I want my fogs and led strip as DRL

I have mine (16 with auto LP) set so that fogs are on in daytime with U LED DRLs. At night xenons come on, U LED DRLs stay on, and fogs turn off.

Can manually turn fogs on at night by pulling switch out.

Also, have fogs as coming home / leaving home, instead of the xenons.

Anytime your DRLs are on, the fogs will be on. Not sure how DRLs work with auto.
You have to turn the auto off ("O" position) Then they work as normal once the e-brake is lowered.

Also, have fogs as coming home / leaving home, instead of the xenons.

Same here...looks awesome

One of the first tweaks I made. Coding easy to find. Let me know if u can’t find and I will post my notes.

You successfully retrofitted fogs (I know there was a thread before, but idr what happened)? Edit: nvm yes you did lol.

Also, your coming home function will be manually operated without the factory light sensor. I followed southpawboston's spreadsheet to enable the manual trigger since I only have one of those aftermarket sensors. However, I did find code online to use my DRLs instead of the low beams.
Leaving home won't work at all without the factory light sensor.

Two Questions:

1 - is there a way to change the settings, once mirror dip is enabled, so that when you start driving, the mirror comes back up higher? Mine comes back up, but not as high as I want it too.

2 - is there a way to increase the brightness on the sideview mirrors, of the traffic alert symbol (when a car is in your blind spot)? Mine seems reeeeeeeeeeeeeally dim.

TIA!

Did you use the same steps as above or did you come across this your self?

1- no. The reason it's not going back as high as you want is because your mirror motor lacks position coordinate data. Without it, it only approximates where it's supposed to be. You need to upgrade the motor for that function to work properly.

2 - no.
