On my ORP I finally found that I could only get the DTR's to work during the "daytime" with the light-switch set to Auto the engine running and Park brake off. As soon as it gets dark like pulling into the garage the "headlights" take over.

you could set the switch to parking lights. i run mine in parking light mode all the time until i turn the stalk to headlights on.

Ok I found a fix.

1 Set the Knob switch to parking lights. The one right after Auto
2. In the infotainment screen go to your Toyota menu (not your android auto or carplay)
3. Navigate to Settings, Vehicle Customization, Lights
4. In the Lights menu, you'll see "Daytime running lights". Turn this off. Yes off, menu is on by default.

After turning car off then back on, it may auto back to "on" but change the menu off one more time and it should be permanent.

I tried everything you said BTW are you referring to the amber square shape by the headlight or what I read is called the lazy L the LED strip at the bottom of the headlight this is what's not working?. Thanks for helping

your 4runner does not have an LED strip that is why it is not working. Only Platinum, Trail Hunter and TRD Pro have that.

OMG last Tacoma had one my 21 Tundra had a cool loop around the headlight all the new cars have different types of white LED rope lights around the headlight and Toyota dropped the ball. I'm disappointed I saw the one your talking about

Im talking about the daytime running lights at the center. Not the LED strip copied over from Audi from 2012.

Same. Auto must be selected for DRL to work.
