Focus MK 4.5 Activate Rear DRLs

Evening all.

I've been trying for ages to enable the Rear DRLs on the Focus MK4.5, but having no joy.

I know you can activate them via ForScan within the BCM on the MK4 - but this changed on the MK4.5 annoyingly as they changed the rear lights (as well as the front)

So does anyone know the AsBuilt Data Codes to enable this? I've tried the codes listed for the MK8 but these don't work unsurprisingly (but thought it was worth a go)

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated 🙂

    There are no DRLs on the rear. Are you trying to just have the tail lights on all the time?

    That's what the rear lights are called when enabling the option. DRLs as they are on even in the day on the back. So the short answer is yes, it can be done with AsBuilt on the Fiesta using AsBuilt and can be enabled on the mk4 using the option within ForScan.
