The DRL on my truck stopped working. The fuse is okay, and I replaced the relay. I will be doing a more thorough testing as suggest by your relay article. Just getting frustrated, they worked 4 days ago, now they won't. Oh, bulbs are good, I replaced them yesterday.

Hi,

If they just stopped, it could be a few things. I have attached the diagnostics specific to this vehicle for testing. Take a look through them and let me know if they help or if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe

I don't have a wiring diagram to do some of the testing you are asking for DRL and/or headlamp.

Hi,

No problem. I attached the schematics for the headlamp system/DRL. I had to cut the pic in half to make it more readable, but I did overlap the two so you can follow them easier.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe

Found out there was nothing wrong after all. The weather condition around my area are cloudy a lot and did allow the DRL to come on when I thought they should. Thanks again.
