Default Daytime running lights flicking on & off...

I just purchased my first s2k and noticed that when im driving my daytime running lights keep flicking on and off. When i press the throttle they light up but when i let off they turn off. My low beam and high beams work fine and stay on but just the daytime running lights flicker. Just wondering if this is common or what i should look into.. Im going to try the connectors see if that does anything..

Which lights are the daytime running lamps on your car? Original CAN spec or imported US spec (and some aftermarket DRL fitted)?

Well, I believe 2006 and up cars have the DRL lights standard. My 07 has them, and it's basically the high beam bulb at a lower voltage. Do you have an aftermarket DRL setup?

I think it's strange that if your high beams work, the regular DRLs would flicker or have issues.

I can tell you that the daytime light does not flicker on my 08 car and it should come as standard for the US model.

My high beams or low don't do it. It's not a flicker I guess they actually turn off and back on repeatably.
