FAQs

What type of bulbs does this daytime running light use?

This Hella Daytime Running Light uses LED technology for both its daytime running light and position light functions.

Does this product replace the original daytime running lights?

Yes, this is an OE quality replacement designed for direct transfer of OE know-how, intended to replace original equipment.

Is this product approved for road use?

Yes, the product is ECE approved, meeting European standards for automotive lighting.

Can I install this myself?

While possible, professional installation is recommended due to the integration with the vehicle's electrical system. Incorrect installation can lead to electrical issues or non-compliance.

What is the difference between the daytime running light and position light functions?

The daytime running light (DRL) is a bright light designed to make your vehicle more visible during the day. The position light is a dimmer light used to indicate the vehicle's presence when parked or in low-light conditions, often used in conjunction with the DRL or when the main headlights are on.

How do I know if this is compatible with my car?

Verify the product's MPN (2PT013123-011) and paired article number (2PT 013 123-021) against your vehicle's specifications. Consulting a parts specialist or the vehicle manufacturer is advised.

What should I do if the lights stop working after installation?

First, check all electrical connections and fuses. If the issue persists, consult the troubleshooting section or seek assistance from the installer or a qualified mechanic.

Troubleshooting

Daytime running lights do not turn on

Check the electrical connections to the power source and vehicle wiring harness. Ensure the fuse is intact and the correct vehicle wiring is used for activation.

Position lights are not working

Verify the connection for the position light function. Inspect the wiring and ensure it is properly connected to the vehicle's side light circuit.

Light flickers or is intermittent

Inspect wiring for loose connections or damaged wires. Ensure a stable power supply and ground connection. A faulty connection in the vehicle's control module could also be a cause.

Water ingress inside the lamp

Check the seals around the lens and any cable entry points. If seals are compromised, the lamp may need to be replaced.

Light output seems dim

Ensure the lens is clean. Verify that the lamp is receiving the correct voltage. If the issue persists, the LED unit may be failing and require replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation of this Hella LED Daytime Running Light typically requires professional automotive electrical expertise. It involves securely mounting the lamp, connecting it to the vehicle's power supply, and integrating it with the vehicle's existing lighting control system. Correct wiring is crucial to ensure the daytime running lights activate and deactivate appropriately (e.g., dimming or turning off when headlights are switched on) and that the position light functions correctly. Always refer to the vehicle's specific service manual for detailed integration instructions.

Compatibility: While designed for high market coverage, it is essential to verify compatibility with your specific vehicle make, model, and year. Check the MPN (2PT013123-011) against your vehicle's requirements and consult with an automotive parts specialist or the manufacturer if unsure. The paired article number (2PT 013 123-021) may provide further compatibility information.

Care: Maintain the lamp's performance by periodically cleaning the lens with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the plastic or seals. Ensure the lamp remains free from excessive dirt and debris to maintain optimal light output and prevent overheating.
