1 Lucky Texan Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Just wondering if anyone knew if the DRL module and the Illumination Control Module on an 03 H6 Outback might share a bulkead connector or a ground or ???. I have mentioned in other posts about the illumination issue and I do have a replacement module, but I also recently noticed intermittent operation of the Daytime Running Lights. (I also have an intermittent brake light, but I think that's from a sticking float in the brake fluid reservoir) just wondering if a schematic shows anything in common. thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY_Dave Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 hmm, if you put it on the lowbeams is that intermittent as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Rather than a ground problem I would suspect a common connection to power as the possible trouble. I don't have access to all my data at this time but what I see so far it looks like the common connection to power is through the ignition switch. If that was the trouble though I would think there would be more issues than what you stated here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1 Lucky Texan Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 hmm, if you put it on the lowbeams is that intermittent as well? low beams work and, at least once when I was 'experimenting' with the problem, the DRL came back on after I turned the lights off! does the module control a separate relay that is intermittent maybe?

The car is 10 years old (though only 70K miles) and stuff starts failing I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
