Can I manually disable S60 Daytime Running Light?
-----Answer-----
Richard,
The dealer can program the lights for you. Call them and make arrangements.



Volvo dealer refuse to disable the DRL.  The Volvo Tech. claims it's one of the safety feature.

Answer
Richard,
Since it has been proven the DRL make a car easier to see even in th day light, Volvo has adapted them as a safety feature and that is what is programed into the vehicles body control module. So ask to get the phone number of the Volvo rep for that dealer and he/she maybe able to better advise. It take a Volvo scan tool to do the reprograming. I might add that if there is a local shop that has the scan tools they maybe able to help. Short answer no you can not do it.
