I'm not quit sure what you're trying to do. Are you getting any error codes and if so, what would they be? Also, what year is your car as that may also make a difference. The more information you can provide, the more we'll be able to help you.

What do the footnotes for each of the 3 parts indicate?

Your switch description indicates you have DRLs for your w210 "...1404", correct?

So that is the part # you need for the built-in DRL (in the light control switch module)

In some countries (such as Sweaden,Finland) you have to turn on low beam in the day time (not DRL).So I asked is it possible to make this automatically with engine start.May be on old vehicle as mine its impossible,may be not.Thats the question.My car is from Germany.Low beam in the day time isnt neccesary there

Mandatory requirement in Canada too since 1990.

What do you mean it's not DRLs?
Of course it is.
DRLs = Day time running lights.
Google it.

Purchase the light switch that has the DRL automatically enabled in the module.
You can also, purchase a non DRL switch (ie.USA) from fleabay or fleabayUK, singapore ...) and wire it up to function as DRL.
Do a search - there are threads that discuss this.

Update your user cp profile info - INCLUDE your year.
