Default no front drl or turn.

ok heres the deal. i have a 98 trans am. the front drl and turns quit working. i have already tested every fuse and relay and they are good. my rear turns still work and both the flashers have been replaced with new ones 2 months ago. at that time i also replaces both front sockets and bulbs. and everything worked fine untill now. my question is where do i go from here to find out whats going on? thank you in advance for any advice you have to offer.

I'd start by checking for voltage where the new sockets plug into the harness, and working either forwards or backwards from there until you find it.

may be the DRL module. that module controls the DRLs and also in circuit with the front turn signals

If your parking lights in the front work when you turn the headlights on, its probably something related to the DRL module.

Having a similar issue with my 99 T/A. No turn front signals or drls. Checked for 12v power at the sockets. Power is at the socket ONLY with the headlights up and on. Turn headlights off, no power to the sockets. Could this be a drl module issue? Thanks in advance.
