BobLoblaw Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 This is kinda weird. My right headlight/daytime running light doesn't work consistently. Sometimes is comes on like it should, sometimes it doesn't, sometimes it will come on after a few minutes. The left side works fine. I have replaced the headlight bulbs and it still happens. The regular beams and high beams on both sides work fine. Why is this happening and how can I fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denisb Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 If this is a 90-94 model, the DRL module is notorious for going bad. If you're haddy with a soldering gun, you can take it part and will probably find that the thru board relay pins have a cold solder joint on them. It's located behind the battery on the passengers side. I fixed mine two years ago and it's still going strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobLoblaw Posted December 3, 2007 Author Share Posted December 3, 2007 Could I find this DRL module at a wreck yard? Would I still need to do soldering if I could find it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I replaced the switch, with a used one and it was like Lighting a Chirstmas Tree... They say that if you clean it you can BS yourself a few extra weeks... It didn't work for me... Ck the link there was a lot of info... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LD50 Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I took my DRL module apart and was unable to find any visual signs of damage or a poor solder. I replaced it with a new one from the dealer and problem solved. A new module is appx. $120 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denisb Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Another option is the bone Yard...they usually give 30 day warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobLoblaw Posted December 17, 2007 Author Share Posted December 17, 2007 Could someone post a pic of this part? I want to know what I need to grab when I head out to the wreck yard. BTW, I noticed my left taillight was out too. Does this have to do with this DRL module? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denisb Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Nope. DLR are only headlights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
