Disable LED dimming via coding

Does anyone know if we can disable the DRL LED on LCI e92 from dimming when turning on the headlights? I'd think it would look hot at night with the LED at full power around the projectors.

I was actually wondering the same thing, would be awesome if possible.

Doesn't appear to be an option on Neutrino45's spreadsheet, it just may have not been stumbled upon yet...

I searched through NFRM and found all of the following references to SL (the angel eyes?). A lot of them are also related to corner delete mod, so SL might be the turn signals...A couple sound promising, but I'm going to need someone with more coding experience/german to translate. The first two seem the most promising to me, as they refer to SL with high (FL) and low (AL) beams, and there are a number of options to choose = brightness??

The other one that sounds cool, though unrelated, is SIGNALBILD_SL. Has options for one or both lights. Wondering if this is like the Audi's that it turns off the AE when you are using your turn signal on one or both sides...

I'm not into shorting wires on my harnesses. Would rather do it via coding. Must be possible, given the number of things that are...

The answer is in recoding using non-standard variables. (NETTODAT)

I believe the reference to the AE's is RL (ringlight)

Information provide to me via another member,

Do you have the detailed answer, or just know that it can be done using this method but don't actually know how?

Yes I do actually know how
Basically read your NFRM/FRM. Then take the NETTODAT file and make a copy to compare from.
Now change the AE wert_06 or whatever it is and change it to wert_01 and recode the car.
Now read the module again and compare this NETTODAT file to the last.
You'll find 2 bytes (values) that changed.
Then you change them:
00 10 --> [0,0V]
55 05 --> [5,95V]
DD 05 --> [6,6V]
21 06 --> [6,9V]
10 09 --> [10,2V]
F4 09 --> [11,2V]
D7 0A --> [12,2V]
49 0B --> [12,7V]
8D 0B --> [13,0V]
BB 0B --> [13,2V]
FF 0B --> [13,5V]
2C 0C --> [13,7V]
38 0E --> [16,0V]
Save this NETTODAT and recode using the NETTODAT instead of the normal MAN file.
PM me if you'd like more help.
Be VERY careful upping the voltages.
Cheers

Can you confirm that this" PWM_ANSTEUERUNG_RL_BL_1" is the actaul file in question that the "wert" is changed or do you know the specific file in question?

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing the detailed response. Now off to do a little comparing to see if I can figure this out.

This looks promising.
If someone can post if it really worked and a step by step guide, that would be great.
I get everything but am a little confused on 'Then you can change them: ... ... '.
Do we use the exact values listed on the post and ignore the 2 bytes that changed? Or is this something that would differ depending on values changed?

Also not really sure how to 'recode using the NETTODAT instead of the normal MAN file.'

The 2 bytes that change are just used to identify the string of numbers that show you it corresponds to the AE's.

Then replace the bytes that changed with the ones listed.

Then rather than using the FSW use "coapiCodeSqByNettoData".

Thanks! I'll try it later this week when I have time!

No I tried but failed.. because I don't know how to compare the NETTODAT.
The NETTODAT has hundreds of values so I'm not sure if I have to be looking at everything one by one to compare them..
I might try later again.
