i am an owner of a 2000 tahoe z71 (obs). i am just wondering if it is possible to turn off the daytime running lights but not have to worry about my fog lights being disabled?

DRLs were standard on like 96+... Most people disable the green light in the gauge cluster by removing it... DRL diode (honeycomb looking thing) under the dash on the right side of the steering column

The relay is under the dash right of the steering colum. Mine went bad so I get to cruise with the the fogs on with the park lights with out the daytime running lights. You can try also to trace the wire coming out the relay to headlights and just snip it, ijs.

DRL/Fogs are on the same fuse. He wants to be able to run the fogs only.

Negative chief. I run my fogs w/out the DRLs..

Okay how do you run the fogs other than pressing the emergency brake in some to deactivate the DRL's?

I dont press the emergency brake at all. I simply took out the fuse on the side of the dash for the DRLs. The fogs still operate like normal, as does every other lighting feature, other then having the DRLs on at all times.

Okay, well my Limited was different, when my DRL's were working, when I pulled my fuse I lost power to my fogs, after sometime the relay must have went bad and now I ride without DRL's as well. Just the fogs come on with ignition.
