When I was driving Home last night, I noticed that my Daytime running lights stopped working. I am positive that they worked earlier in the week. My headlights do come on when I turn on my low beam, its just that the DRLs aren't working anymore.

Anybody know how to fix it?

I believe the 2g cars have a module somewhere?

2g's drl module is on the left front(driver side) underneath the bumper right beside the a/c accumulator. U don't really need it unless u go for vehicle inspection.  Most people disconnect them anyways. Mine is also disconnected, I just turn my marker lights on if want drl.

But I thought its illegal to not have DRLs, can you get a ticket for not having them?

yes you can and it won't pass a safety or VI if you get one of those.

Also, because it was supposed to work and now it doesn't, something is on the fritz.  This may just be a symptom, so it pays to find out what is wrong.

check the fuse to make sure its not blown, if your fuse is gone you got a short in the circuit, also try putting in different bulbs as a quick check to make sure it not the bulbs
