Has anyone disabled their day time running lights? I have a 1997. The S10 groups explain how to do it but either our trucks are unique or I'm not seeing it. On the 98, there's a diode in the fuse box under the hood. It's clearly labeled DRL, with the diode symbol. On the 97 th...

Neil, I only get the digest, so if this has been answered already, my apologies. I believe the sensors are in the same locations in the '97s and '98s. Attached is a .pdf showing the locations of the sensors from my '98. For the PbA 1260Us they are all attached to the end of th...
