There is no fuse directly for each headlamp. They get power from the bussed electrical center and through the smartjunction boxmodule.

im up in Canada, and have DRL
i want to get HID's , but obviously want to disable them so they dont stay on whenever the car is running and ebrake is down, just when i actually turn on the headlights
like you said, there is no real fuse. would i screw something up if i put a swtich in the power wire for the headlights between the SJB and the actual headlight? essentially that switch would control whether the headlight gets power or not
TIA

The DRL I believe are a programable perameter for the Smart Junction Box. I haven't tried it yet. The dealermight be ablt toturn it off if not illegal

RE: Headlight Fuse
I'm having a similar problem. I wired my HIDs without changing anything else and now the lights sometimes refuse to power ON or can flicker at times. There are times though where I have no issues with them. I havethem setup to turn ON when I turn the headlight switch on.
Can anyone please let me know the best action to take or what I have to buy in order to get these lights working properly? Thanks.
