Perhaps not the right area to ask so forgive me but should amber DRLs on 2024 xlts turn on at the start up? I only have small corner lights running when parked and DRLs start working after i shift out of parking gear. The picture is with truck stopped in neutral and parking break

I've only ever seen them on while driving.

It depends on how bright it is out when you start your truck. My 21 , during the day light, will turn on the DRL's only when I put it into gear. At night, they come on as soon as the truck starts.

I've seen someone saying that they should turn on at night unfortunately mine only turn on when i put in gear it doesn't matter if day or night wondering if this can be fixed with forscan or if there is actually a problem with sensor

I don't think I've ever seen anything other than the amber LEDs on when driving during the day based on seeing other 2024s on the road or looking at the reflection of the car in front of me. I assume the amber lights are the DRLs on my truck and that's fine with me.

Ya, I don't really care if DRLs are on any time.

Somehow I've managed to stay alive without them for 48 years. I think I'll be ok.

Yes they come on when out of park. Shift to park and they turn off even with ignition on. DRLs come on regardless of ambient light.

I understand and know that haha question is why aren't they on when you start the car like previous years 21-23 and like most other fords just wondering if this is a sensor problem or if its set up like that

Just the way they’re set up. Here’s the blurb from the owners manual, page 149:
