My DRL light will not turn on but when I use the knob I put the parking light on.
All my fuse are fine but I would still like to know why my DRL light will not turn on.

Hello,

Sounds like your Daytime Running Light module may be bad. With some vehicles, this can also cause other lighting issues.

I have attached some testing procedures for this, and it should help give you more information.

Keep me posted!

You will find the module behind the kickpanel at knee level underneath the steering column. The first attachment shows how to remove the panel. The second attachment shows the basic shape of what the module looks like, and where to remove the plug. A replacement may be purchased from a parts store, but for an item like this, I would recommend going to the dealership. You will pay more, but the part is of better quality. Note that when you go, take your registration certificate to match up the vin number to ensure the proper fit for the parts.
