The DRL gets power when the light switch is turned on and/or the engine is turned on. It is turned off when the engine is off and lights are off or when engine is off, lights on and keyfob double locked or engine off, lights on and 30second delay. This is how I have my aux lights and other switched loads wired. The second I double lock my doors all lights go out. <$10 for add a fuse and relay to enable/disable all other relays.
