Question Star Diagnosis to program DRL on W164 2010

Hi there.
Want to install DRL on my W164. It has advanced fog lights and they turn on when you turn the wheel. When I activate day running lights (in SAM module) it turns the low beam light on. Using Star Diagnosis I changed low beam to fog lights, but it again turns low beam on. What is wrong? What did I miss?

Canadian Mercedes DRLs can be activated via Star diagnosis, no sure if US cars will do

STAR Diagnostic is a PC-based on-board diagnostic software for Mercedes-Benz. Better to choose XENTRY SD Connect WIFI unit. Search the forum post or other Mercedes forums, lots of tutorial guide there

You missed learning some German at school. The second menu is about whether the DRL available, but you selected -not. Hence the results, your low beam is your DRL.
