OK, I did it EXACTLY like it is pictured and now my DRL AND headlights are on all the time even in the day and I have to manually select daytime on my nav or the screen stays nightime black because in the auto mode it senses the headlights are on. I think something has changed the way they wire the newer H2 models from the days of this old post. When I remove the wire things go back to normal with only DRLs during the day.

You need to put the diode in your jumper wire. I cannot remember what diode I used but if you search the forum you will find the model to use.

The diode acts as a one way gate for current. With out it your DRL's are on during the day and your jumper wire is energising your Headlight relay and turning them on. The diodes are directional. So you put it in your jumper line and face the silver stripe on the diode toward the DRL relay. That way current can only go from the Headlamps to the DRL's and not flow back.

Thanks Crush
that's exactly what I needed.

I was in St. Louis this noonish and stopped in Lynch and they did it for $50! They put a toggle switch under the dash next to the light switch so I can defeat the automatic system and select headlights only, DRLs only, or both at the same time. Lots of H1s in their service bays.
