this helped thanks
Just a small video of a DRL relay repair on a Honda. I had helpfrom my
daughter as you can hear in the back ground!
What kind of Soldering Iron did you use and what kind of wire did you use?
awesome, i’ve been reading up on this in forums but it’s nice to see a
video on it. gonna attempt to do this and my cylinder head cap replacement
on my next day off lol. 2 super easy fixes that will save me hundreds!
Do you know where is location for module in honda odyssey 2014 . Thanks
thank you, thank you , thank you , saved a few bills , 4 years no day time
running lights , ( used my low beam lights during the day ) one high beam
did not work ,my first attempt i rushed the soldering job and clicked it
back in . I started hearing a buzzing coming from behind the glove box,
theres a grey fuse looking box that was buzzing so i pulled it out and the
buzzing went away i figured i should replace it. the auto wrecker was not
open yet as it was 7 am , so i decided to pull apart the module again to
reinspect using a magnified lamp light then i noticed more cracked
connections so i re-solder again , click it back in and success!!
My drl is flasing and makes noise , is that mean something wrong withmy
module
Thank you for the video BackYard! This truly helped resolve my 2001 Acura
1.7EL DRL problem. I tried my best to solder the board yet just couldn’t
get it to work.
I went to the wreckers and eventually found one in an old Honda VAN.
I also put in a new (used) little grey relay (behind the glove box) and a
10amp fuse.
Ready for the next 250kms
thx for the video
Hey i was trying to locate my drl relay on my 01 honda civic lx and cant
find it under my dash?
Thanks for the tutorial! My DRLs have been out for 4 years because I did
not know how to fix them. Fixed them today within 10 minutes after watching
your video.
The repair instructions are correct but your soldering is not very good.
For one, you are using too thick of a solder wire and secondly, your solder
points are all cold joints (they are dull silver rather than shiny silver).
You need to get a thinner wire, remove all of the oxidized solder (buy the
$5 solder bulb at TheSource) and then heat the joint and melt the solder
into it so that it forms a peak (like the original connections). It
shouldn’t be so bulbous and thick looking.
Great video. I’ve got a DRL light on my dash, and verified that there is
no voltage to the right high beam. I’m going to take out the module
tonight and see if the solder joints need rework. Thanks!
this was a huge help – thanks, you took all the mystery out of it. I’m
going to be doing this on a n Aucra.
