Default Newbie with 2006 Camry

I’ve got a very sold car and had it for a long time. Joined the forum specifically because I’m having problems with my DRL LIGHTS since I’ve changed all my bulbs to LED.
thank you everyone

LED's can have issues as the DRL system reduces voltage to the bulb to reduce light output. Some LED are dimmable and just on/off.

Would you know of an LED that would work correctly as a DRL?
An LED (9005) which turns on the DRL during the day and works as a high beam during darkness.

Just what are the issues you have after changing to LED's?

The DRL lights do not work at all.
When I select auto position on the turn signal the DRL will not come on during the day. The new LED’s do come on automatically during darkness and they will turn off automatically after the car is stopped and parked.
During the night the lights work correctly, low beam 9006 and high bean 9005 but the DRL 9005 will not turn on at all during the day unless i manually turn the light on and when I did that the headlights are either on full HighBeam or Low beam. There are no DRL’s at all.

I have the Sealight LED’s 9005, 9006.
Thanks again for responding. I know someone has to have the answer, that’s why I signed up on this forum.
