Default Day Time Running Lights

Hi. I am member of Spanish jeep forums.
I have a GCK 5.9 from Canada. I was working the day time running lights until I left my car at the dealer for technical revision. After that the DTRL is not working anymore. As in Canada, in Lithuania also is mandatory to have the lights switched on so I looking for the possibility to switch DTRL on because as all you know the dealer is really expensive.
If somebody know how to do I will be pleased to get the information.
Thank you very much and regards from Lithuania.

First why not ask your dealer tech what he did to them, its a question he cannot charge you for something he might have screwed up. Also you can check the fuse, not sure what else might be running on that fuse if anything. Only thing i can think of at present.

Check the relay under the hood, switch it out with the horn (same size) if that fixes it you just need a new relay.
The only way to shut them off is for the dealership to hook it up on a DBRIII and shut off the Canada/ Export code. Good luck!
