@scientificharmony: Wow - pictures are so big!!! I thought that you might simply add the pictures as an attachment (like you did for the last pic)

In any event, try this:
  • Leuchte5 TFL RB32-Lichtfunktion B 5 >Standlicht allgemein (Schlusslicht; Positionslicht; Begrenzungslicht)
Don

Try this:

Leuchte3SL VRB21
Lichtfunktion B 3 >nicht aktiv [ Standlicht allgemein (Schlusslicht; Positionslicht; Begrenzungslicht)]
Lichtfunktion G 3>Standlicht allgemein (Schlusslicht; Positionslicht; Begrenzungslicht) [nicht aktiv]
Dimmwert GH 3 > choose a number up to 100 ("26" - perhaps) [0]

Leuchte2SL VLB10
Lichtfunktion B 2 >nicht aktiv [ Standlicht allgemein (Schlusslicht; Positionslicht; Begrenzungslicht)]
Lichtfunktion G 2>Standlicht allgemein (Schlusslicht; Positionslicht; Begrenzungslicht) [nicht aktiv]
Dimmwert GH 2 > choose a number up to 100 ("26" - perhaps) [0]

settings in square brackets = current setting (please confirm before changing)

Now the issue is, when on parking lights, the right DRL does not go off when the right indicator is on.
i thought it was Lichtfunktion C5 - Blinken rechts aktiv (beide Phasen), but it didnt work 😕

Post-up Leuchte2SL VLB10 and Leuchte3SL VRB21settings (I need to see ALL 19 x channels on each Leuchte-set)

there are a number of ways of doing this - do you care if Single Side Parking Light is dimmed to the same level as Parking Light( i.e. DRL lamps when headlights are switched-ON)?

Id like the DRLs to still be on when the headlights are on, maybe dimmed.
id also like the DRLs to go off when the indicator is on.
Maybe dont mind if the DRLs switch off when the headlights are on.

Thanks @DV52

you are the main man.

.........and? I don't understand - what exactly do you want to happen to the "LED dot"? Explain the before and after dynamics

Don
PS: please include Leuchte9FL RB2 and Leuchte8FL LB39 values with your reply

@scientificharmony : Maybe it's your thick Yankee accent - but you have lost me!! I still don't understand.

If I'm reading the 2 x Leuchte-sets that you posted correctly, the lamps are currently programmed to illuminate for:
  • Parking Lights: meaning when the low-beams are switched-ON , maybe you call this "position lights"?)
  • Single-Side-Parking-Lights : meaning when the ignition is OFF and the turn-indicator is left switched to one side of the car), and
  • DRL
Not sure how you want this changed?

Im not yankee!

far from it 👀

you really are confused!

the setting on lights dial after Auto is a green logo. I don’t know what the hell this is known by, Is this not parking lights?
Id like the DRLs to be on both sides when on this green logo.

dont insult someone you dont know especially as they seek assistance from you.
Im irish not American.
