No drivers side high beam or day time running lights?

    :?: Has anyone had an issue with the drivers side high beam and DRL’s
    not working. When I put the high beams on, I do not get the blue high
    beam indicator on the dash but the DRL indicator does not turn off. I
    swapped the bulbs and relay with the passenger side and the passenger
    side functions normally. Voltmeter says no power at the high beam
    socket.
    Any thoughts on where to look next?
    How difficult will it be tracing the ground for that light socket?

    are you using standard wattage bulbs? high wattage aftermarket bulbs
    tend to burn out wiring on hondas.

    Hi Jim, all the bulbs are standard replacements. It turned out to be
    the DRL relay under the dash. I swapped it out with one from a 91
    Accord and all is fine. I gave the old one to a friend and he
    re-soldered the contacts for me and it now works as well.
