Operation CHARM: Car repair manuals for everyone.

For Canada

The headlamp system on vehicles for Canada contains a daytime light unit. The unit activates the high beam headlamps at approximately half illumination whenever the engine is running. If the parking brake is applied before the engine is started, the daytime lights will not be illuminated. The daytime lights will illuminate once the parking brake is released. After that, the daytime lights will continue to operate even when the parking brake is applied.
