I started installing some LED lights for DRL's this week. As usual I seem to do things the hard way by trying to go cheap. I forgot to check how I wired my bypass switch and wired them wrong at first. The switch is on the ground side. Anyway, changed the wiring but something is still not right. They work, but they don't completely shut off unless I turn off the switch. I need to confirm but I think I may have a high resistance connection through the drl relay. I'll post pics soon. Does a anyone have a suggestion for a workaround? I can use the switch but it defeats the purpose.
