Hello ; ______________________On my 1999 toy corolla……….I have found you can keep the DRL off …..if before you insert your key….to slightly lift the hand parking brake. First, make sure your parking brake isn’t adjusted too tightly……..then ..instead of pulling your brake handle up one click as others suggest…which I think is excessive..……..you simply insert a cap from a spray paint can under the brake handle…..which will raise it slightly. You should also tape around the sharp edge of the cap with vinyl electrical tape for protection. Now, when you insert and turn your key to the on position…..you will see the parking brake indicator light lit up. This can also be accomplished…..without the spray paint cap…………. by installing a small switch in the parking brake wiring under the armrest. —————jim taylor
