Coding, what not to forget?

Hey T, is it possible to turn off lights based on what position the light switch is on?

I don't quite understand what you mean with this question.

I turn my lights on manual, just because I want to decide when what is on.

So my lights in position 1, turn on only the Angel Eyes. If I hit the fog light button, the fogs turn on.

If I put in position 2, my HIDs turn on.

I think you just answered my question. What I want to do is this:
"Auto" - all light function normally as they would from the factory.
"off" - Same function as factory
"Park lights" - only angel eyes on. All rear lights off as well.
"last position" - same as factory

Essentially it would just be the angel eyes on when the light switch is switched to park lamps.

I can't/don't want to disable the markers when the headlamps are on because the cops around here aren't the friendliest bunch.

so you want angel eyes as DRL then?

Essentially...but only when switched on. Ill be embarking on a headlamp project this weekend...the new angel eyes when said and done should rival the brightness of the new BMW lights. Hence the light coding questions.

so why don't you code off the parking light ambers and just use angel eyes as parking lights? i don't think you can get away from tail lights being on when the switch is in the parking light position

there are a couple of lines that relate to angel eye's as DRL's but i never gotten them to work. Its probably one of those combination codes that needs another line adjusted.
