    On my 2014 730 when I turn on my high beams the low beams turn off, is it possible to make it so low beam stays on as well?? I don't know if the headlights run of a computer or multi switch.

    the LCM(computer) will not allow it.... why do you want them too...?

    if you want great lights go with the factory driving/fog lights
    fog light come on with low beams, driving lights come on with high beams

    Is it your truck or a company truck? You don't do modifications to a company truck or you might get charged for it if they find out.

    I could tell you how but it requires a jumper wire and a 12V diode to trick the relays. Are you willing to buy one and do some soldering?

    Those extra fog/driving lights are annoying, imo.

    It is my Truck, I have a bambi basher on it that blocks the lower part of the high beam so the first bit of the road isn't lit up as well as I would like it. I do have fog/driving lights as well, but I wish to put hid bulbs in my projector but as they take a few seconds to light up I will be blind when going from high To low beam.

    The easiest way is what Pablo says. Have a shop hook the laptop up. I didn't know there was options on that.

    I talked to the shop foreman at my local dealership and he said it isn't possible. I was hoping there would be a way to do it.
