Help with running front LED's on 997.2TT

How do I get the front LED strip of lights to operate when in the OFF or daytime running light position ?
Only the fogs come on in this position and I would like the LED's to be on as they were in my C2S.
As a matter of fact the full bank of LED's don't come on in any of the lighting positions. In one of the positions only the 2 outer spot LED's come on. What are the rest of the LED lights for if they aren't functional ?

Thanks

You may need to do that through settings in your display.

The LEDs are on when the headlights are off. They are the DRLs. I don't use the "Auto" setting since I don't trust it. When my lights are in the off position, the LEDs are definitely on. Even when the headlights are on, the LEDs are just less bright.

That is how it was in my 09 C2S but now in the Turbo they don't come on in any of the lighting positions.....only the 2 fog lights come on in "Off" position. ??

3 lights

Led, signal, headlights.

daylight on setting

off- Led

1st clockwise- signal

2nd clockwise- headlight+signal

Daylight off

off-no light

same as above

If I remember correctly...

You can not turn led and signal on together and 997.2 turbo dont use led as fog light. So, you can not light up all 3 at the same time. Just driver side rear fog light is all.
