Just the other day I noticed the daytime running lights weren't on and the dash indicator light was lit. I checked the parking brake and all the fuses related, according to the manual, to the DRL circuit. Am I missing something else, all other lights and auxillary are working fine. Any help.

I did pull and check each fuse in the under the hood box and swapped out the fuse labeled as 'lighting'. As far as relays, non of them are labeled DRL, of the four relays two are for diesel system and remaining two I swapped and had no success.  (in reply to RonH) Post #: 6
