You have an 'auto' feature on your light stalk. That is the sensor to switch from DRL to Low-beam once it gets dark outside.

My 2nd Gen ES300 (1994) doesn't have DRL's like the 3rd Gen ES's but it also has that? What function would it have for the 2nd Gens?

Yes, it does after it gets the moisture out of the cab. You ever notice in the rain, if you do not allow that to happen your windows fog up?
