Default DRL & Skip Shift Issue

Guys, I had my master clutch cylinder replaced back in September and I noticed a couple of issues after. 1) My DRL's don't turn on. 2) The skip shift indicator hasn't come up either (not a bad thing IMO). 3) My stereo screen backlight stopped working (could be a coincidence). My question is, is there something I should look at regarding the DRL and skip shift issue? Thanks for all your help.

If your skip shift still activates, then 2 and 3 are most likely just burned out bulbs.

Your DRL module could be bad if everything else with the front lights is working.

So after I got my tires installed yesterday, I tried some easy driving and the Skip Shift light came on. Made me feel more at ease. Do you think the bulbs could have all burnt out when the mast clutch cylinder work was done?

Also, to add, the turn signals work. I know the filaments are split. I haven't yet looked to see if the dim turn signal lights activate when I turn the lights on.

They probably un plugged the emergency brake light connector to the eb rake arm. If the car doesn't sense that ground it won't enable daytime running light because it thinks the e brake is up
