Default DRL LED Strip Not Working



Hi, Guys.

I have a weird issue with the driver side DRL LED strip working intermittently. Sometimes the driver side works fine, sometime it doesn't. Any clue?



Thanks in advance.



Note: 2012 Lexus is250 with the HID style headlight assembly.

Bump.

Just curious if anyone else has or is experiencing this issue. So far the DRL 's have been working fine but when the headlights come on, the driver side DRL turns off.

If I were a guessing person what are the chances it's been in a wreck before and parts were replaced?
Regardless, I'd suspect a bad ground is in play.

Look for a wires grounded to the body and remove them and clean them.

0% chance it's been in a wreck, I'm the original owner. So far, its been the DRL's have been working fine but when the headlights come on, the driver side DRL shuts off and the passenger stays on.

Still, check the ground for that light.
