anthsfocus Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 I've just bought a 2014 fiesta zetec s and when I turn the engine on the dipped headlights come on why is it doing this? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 That's probably DRL's (daytime running lights).They became a legal requirement on all vehicles designed after 2011. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daytime_running_lamp Either that or you have automatic lights turned on.Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isetta Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Same thoughts as above. Note also that some fiestas had daytime lights before ford started using newer headlamps with a line of leds at the bottom for the daytime lights 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthsfocus Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 Is there anyway I can turn these off? They aren’t daytime running lights thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren’t daytime running lights thanks On lower trim levels Ford don't use LEDs but a bulb. If you have front bulbs on but nothing at the rear, they're just non-LED DRLs, you won't be able to turn them off, they're a legal requirement 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
