2008 Camry
I need to replace my daytime running light bulb. I don't see it specifically listed in the manual. Is it the headlight low beam?? (it shouldn't, since those lights work, it's only one of the DRLs that is out)
Thanks!

 

The DRL's are the Highbeam in low power. The only reason I know is because I am trying to add more lighting to it and I was looking to use the DRL's but I cannot.

 

I replaced all of mine recently. I pulled one just for fun and it was all black and melted. So, I pulled the rest of them and they all looked disfigured and the High Beams were black. They all still worked, just looked bad, so I replaced them. Much better now.

 

Thanks!

Make sure you don't touch them...the oils from your fingers can end up frying the bulb (or so I've heard)

 

The bulb is an H11 halogen bulb. And no, you cannot replace them with LED because the bulbs pull dual duty as high beam and DRL. LED's would just go full high beam no matter what.

 

Yeah you can

Not on my 2008 Hybrid you cannot. THe DRL/High Beam is a single element bulb that is supplied a lower voltage for DRL use. Put in a single element LED (which goes to full brightness at 10V) and your DRL and high beam will be equal brightness, blinding the heck out of everyone you approach.


The bulb you linked to is a 9007 type dual element bulb used in single bulb applications, which our TCH are not.

 

Yeah but it shows that there are dual brightness LEDs. Right?
