Default daytime running lights

I have a 98 ram quad cab. My daytime running lights are out. They have been flickering for months but now they are gone. I think it's my daytime running light module.
Does anybody know where this unit is located?

Thks. KayakMan

Direct from the service manual. Left side = driver side.

And before anyone asks, DRLs were standard on the Canadian Rams

im guessing you need to find a DRL module.. looks like it plugs into the lights wiring harness

Unless you have a connector for the DRLM just chillin under your hood (which I doubt) it would not make sense to install it (the OEM DRL module). It interconnects into too many circuits. However, you can easily modify the wiring to where the lights turn on with the key is in the RUN position. Just download the service manual and look at the wiring diagrams (look for the Merry Christmas thread around here)
