phil1336 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 The Owner Manual indicates there is (2) Settings for DRL`s on the 2018 Ford EcoSport. Configurable, I'm assuming for US destined Vehicles where not mandated by Law and Non-Configurable which I assume is for Canadian destined Vehicles which are required by Law. Where is the Menu Setting for the "Configurable" DRL`s? When set in Headlight (on) Position or Automatic Headlight (on) the Headlights go on in both Neutral and in Drive an off while in Park. In Manual (on) position, both Headlamps an Tail Lamps are both on. In Auto (on) position, Headlights remain on an Tail Lights are (off) during daytime driving conditions. It appears that unlike most DRL`s, there is no difference in illumination between reduced DRL illumination an regular non-DRL illumination? Is that by design or part of the (configuration) that the Owners Manual is not clear on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 If they are configurable there should be an on/off menu option in the left hand menu in the instrument panel. Configurable DRLs are an option in the US - usually on higher trim levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuzzymoomoo Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Fleet too right? I think that still depends on trim level? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I think the fleet option is permanent DRLs not configurable DRLs. But it might vary by vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Configurable DRLs are an option in the US - usually on higher trim levels. All US 2018 Ford EcoSports in "S" Trim have Configurable DRL`s. Not sure about the SE, SES, or Titanium Trim which come standard with "Projector" Headlamps & a LED Surround. Not sure if that is the DRL`s on those Models or are an additional to the Configurable DRL`s which operate the Headlamps at a slightly reduced power output? OPPS, just check the 2018 Ford EcoSport Packaging Guide an indeed the SE Trim Model has (both) the Configurable DRL`s which appears to activate the LED signature Headlamp Lighting. It appears the SES an Titanium Trim editions are equipped the same way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil1336 Posted February 18, 2018 Author Share Posted February 18, 2018 I don't believe the Order Guide posted by ice capades makes no mention of a DRL Fleet Only Option. Just the Engine Core Block Heater limited to just a handful of Cold Weather States. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil1336 Posted February 20, 2018 Author Share Posted February 20, 2018 Just found the Configurable DRL`s option on the Extended Options Menu using the left side buttons on the Steering Wheel. They are set at least on the "S" Trim in (on) position from the Factory but can be disabled if desired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
