I drive a company owned 2005 8600 2-axle and would like to know is there a was to disable the Day-Headlights which turn on and remain on when you charge the brake system?

There should be a relay specifically for that on your fuse/relay panel. Just pull it out and set it aside incase you need a spare relay one day.
Drivin_Dave Thanks this. -
Thank you josh.c
I had not thought of exploring the fuse panel. I had a GMC pick-up in which you could disable the daylights by pressing the dome lamp button 5 times, thought maybe a simular possiblity with this tractor. Yankin' out a fuse will do fine for me. -
There's probably not a fuse specifically for the DRLs, but there is a relay.

I'm curious as to why you want to do this.

Maybe the guy just wants to use his own common sense on when to turn his lights on. Maybe he'd like to be able to blink his headlights. I personally think that DRLs should only be legal if they turn on all of the vehicle's lights-way too many people forget to turn on the lights when it gets dark because they can still see the road in front of them with the DRLs.
I've been hit by cars twice since I've been driving, once during the day, and once before dawn. Had my lights on both times, and neither one of them saw me.SheepDog Thanks this. -
I will agree that all the lights should be on, not just the headlamps, and for the reason you stated. -
Drivin_Dave Thanks this.
