    So all I have done so far is install the raptor lights Into the grill. I unplugged the DRL plug, but then realized I didn't have any splice adapters so I had to run to the store to get some more. I plugged the DRL plug back in before heading to the store and now my DRL lights and fog lights do not work when I want those specific lights to turn on. The DRL still work while the headlights are on though. Any suggestions? All fuses have been checked as well.

    Thanks for the help!

    My DRL still work , but only when the headlights are on and no I did not disconnect the battery, but no fuses are blown. All I did was unplug and plug back in the DRL plug on the driver's side

    What do you mean by "DRL plug" and "DRL switch"?

    Is it on auto? Is fog light switched in the on or off position?

    Make sure the parking brake is off as well.

    I have the basic tech package. I have no auto lights or sensors. Plus it is a manual

    So the DRL definetly had something to do with the combination of the ebrake being released and the vehicle being in motion. Still haven't quite figured out the fog lights though.

    Thanks for the quick responses everyone!
