There are three wires connected to the front lamps - brown, black, and dark blue. The brown wire powers the running/parking lights. The black wire is ground. The dark blue wire powers the DRLs and turn signals. If that wire is cut you have no front turn signals or daytime running lights. I suspect that the former owner was a fool who didn't like DRLs and thought cutting the wire was a good way to get rid of them (without considering the side effects). I recommend you reconnect the wires.
