Dtrl are not coming on...

It was snowing pretty good in philly when my drtl started to not come on..
Im pretty sure I blew a fuse somewhere (fog light are rewired tot he tail light from the fuse box underhood.) I checked the DTRL fuse and thats still good.. Is there any other fuses I should check for like under my hood?? I need this fixed asap because my tail lights are not comin on at night unless I use my brakes.. Thanks.

I think you need to check the DTRL module for connection

If I'm not mistaken, it is behind the passenger side headlight. A search for "drl module" would probably give you more info.

You have DTRL on your car OP? Is your car Canadian spec? DTRL = daytime running lights I assume

If your tail lights are not working you blew a 10A fuse in the driver's side fuxebox, forgot the name, was in right column near the middle I think.

because the foglight rewire uses the tail light fuse it has a little more load than before. so that one will blow a little easier than it should.

I went to check the fuse box under the driver side fuse and the only fuse that looked like it was relating to tail lights was the stop light fuse but they comes on when I use the brakes. I couldn't check the fuse yet but I will update when I do.

I think the tail light fuse might be under the hood
