Default Low beams don't work

I replaced the low beam bulbs, checked the 4 - 10 amp fuses, checked the sockets to make sure those are fine. Our manual does not have a low beam relay like the V6. Any ideas of why my turning signals, hi beam, fog lights work but not the low beam?

Cheers,

On my 06 there is a relay under the hood in the fuse box marked 15016745. It controlls low beams. Maybe poke it with a stick? Or do you have a voltmeter?

Ya thats the one the HDM/BCM called the dealer today they said $87 CDN so I made a dealer appointment with warranty for Weds. Thank you for the reply I will update to let everyone no if that's the issue.

GM list price for 15016745 is $45.05 (US) although currently it looks as though its on back order through GM. None of the warehouses, or even the Canada warehouses show stock at the moment.

Well with tax $91 later the relay was the issue. GM sure knows how to suck every penny out of you!

I'm having the same problem with my '07 Grand Prix GXP. Did the part (HDM relay/module) look like the one displayed in this link? I'd rather buy and replace it myself, but if this is not the part I guess I'll have to go to the dealership also.
