daytime running light is on (both sides) after a while it shuts off. When I take the fuse off then put it back in it's on then shuts off again. Keeps doing it. Can you tell me what should I check it?
all the fuses are ok

Hello .. thanks for the donation .. much appreciated

Start by checking/replacing the Dip beam relay and the Main beam/fog light relay !

Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
The daytime running lamps (DRL) system is designed to switch the low beam headlamps ON at full intensity and the tail lamps (including license plate lamps) at normal intensity under the following conditions:
the ignition is in the RUN position
the headlamp switch is in the OFF position
The side lights, tail lamps and the license plate lamps are illuminated normally by the master lighting switch.
The daytime running lamps are extinguished under the following conditions:
the ignition in the OFF position
the headlamp switch is set to the PARK position (all vehicles except Canada)
the headlamp switch is set to the ' headlamp' position
The daytime running lamps interact with the instrument cluster.

Hope this helps
