Question… Alpharex installed my lights with the harness. There is an inline fuse in the positive terminal wire for the harness. If I pull that doesn’t that effectively simulate not having installed the harness? But when I remove the fuse my car has no start up animation or drl.

My suspicion is when you install the DRL harness it bypasses the original DRL features and maybe that is why it doesn’t work when removing power.

Ah crap. I would prefer to just run factory with no additional harness but not excited about removing the bumper again. I guess it’s staying the way it is for now.

You don't need to remove the bumper to introduce or remove the harness.

Haha I’ve got new fog lights coming today so I’ll be removing the number again this evening in the freezing temps of the north east.

Fair enough. I got SS6 MAX fogs to install. RIP my bumper tabs and plastic clips. 12⁰ tonight 😁

Ok. I have no right to complain. It’s hot here in SoCal.

What is this "App" that you guys are talking about? I went to their web site and looked for an AlphaRex app in the google play store with no luck.

Side load it. It's useless, a Bluetooth module for the lights was never delivered in with release

Download app from Apple App Store. I don’t believe it’s found on the Google Play Store. Apparently, it’s supposed to help configure the AlphaRex headlights to blink sequentially or a variety of different ways.

Okay, so this is a useless app that is only available with an apple.
I have an android anyway so I'll drop this.

Like they said earlier in the post, you can sideload the app
However, if you are wanting to do so, Google play store is limiting what you can and can't side load starting in 2026.
