I don't believe the 95 does have DRLs. It doesn't turn on even with the switch?

the parking lights turn on with the switch and the rest turn on with the switch all the way on, but when i started it up in the morning while dark, the lights dont turn on, so im wondering what is bad or if a wire is chewed or something

Probably the sensor on the front center of the dash.

I would guess ambient light sensor. But that's just a guess

NLA stands for "No Longer Available", the part has been discontinued...

New, that is. You can find it used. But DRL would unlikely be standard in 95 unless your car was made in canada or for the canadian market(99% likely to be made in canada then)
1999 was the first year for DRL in the park avenue, which added a resistor to the headlight harness and sent power when in gear(commanded as always on) or just on when dark, manually disablable if in park or neutral
i would imagine 98-99 may have had the option or use in the US. I could check my manual

As far as I know the 95 is the only year without in the US. But I could even be wrong on that. This is going off memory from when I installed my projector headlights on my 99(that was wrecked in 2011). I know my 98 has DRLs and the 99 did. EDIT Here is the thread I was searching for which confirms my thoughts aurorah.proboards.com/thread/15938/classic-drls-disabled |
