Truck-Lite 97302 Heavy-Duty Daytime Running Light Module (12V DRL System, Epoxy-Sealed Steel Housing, 7-Wire Blunt-Cut Hardwired)
Enhance daytime fleet visibility, improve highway safety, and dramatically extend your forward headlight bulb life with the commercial-grade engineering of the Truck-Lite 97302 Heavy-Duty Daytime Running Light (DRL) System Module. Specifically designed for 12V vocational trucks, delivery fleets, transport vehicles, and buses, this robust electrical control module safely manages automatic low-beam lighting performance across heavy-duty road environments.
Instead of burning through standard low-beam filaments under full alternator voltage during clear daylight routes, the 97302 operates forward low-beam headlamps at a reduced intensity of 75%. This optimized power output provides essential daytime driving visibility to oncoming traffic while cutting thermal stress and maximizing headlamp longevity. To prevent unnecessary circuit strain or flashing upon initial ignition, the smart module features a built-in 15-second "time-in" delay before activation. Furthermore, it automatically activates vital rear tail and side marker lamp networks to ensure complete, 360-degree vehicle presence awareness.
Built to integrate seamlessly into working commercial rigs, it features an intelligent parking brake disable option that instantly locks out and shuts down the DRL system whenever the driver engages the mechanical parking brake. This ensures your headlights remain dark while the truck is idling in the terminal yard or maintenance bay.
The inner electronic components are completely encapsulated and sealed in a heavy-duty epoxy compound inside a rugged steel housing. This bulletproof barrier eliminates vulnerabilities to heavy chassis vibrations, thermal shock, and direct moisture intrusion, while providing internal short-circuit protection. Meticulously engineered to perform under severe vocational demands, this unit meets or exceeds strict SAE, NHTSA, and CSA guidelines, while exceeding premium GM and Ford electrical, RFI, and EMI manufacturing specifications.
