    DRL suddenly stopped working. Bear in mind its connected in a series.

    Replaced both bulbs.

    Pulled the fuse marked D/L. Replaced with fresh fuse in Engine Compartment.

    Is there any other relays/fuse to check.


    Could someone point me to the correct relays/fuse to check with pictures maybe?

    Next course of action please?

    Might be a dumb question here but is the parking brake off when you’re testing this?

    @Saker ... the setting is still 'ON' in the info center.
    Am stumped for now.
    Replaced both bulbs
    Replaced fuse 25A in the Engine bay.


    Trip to dealer before warranty runs out???/

    @LuLu

    This is the Fuse Box where your DRL Relay resides.

    Just curious. Am I the first to encounter DRL Series failure on the 2022 - 2024 Model.
    A vehicle less than 3 years old.

    Its stock. Hmm
    Will Report back next week. Hopefully solution will provide insight to any future occurrence.

    I use DRL all the time for visibility.

    I wonder if 2025 T4R DRL are also connected in a series.
