The common problems with DRL system is wires open circuit near the windshield washer tank. The wiring harness to the headlights.

You have to find the wires that are in open circuit or corroded
hint : after removing the isolated tape pull each wire one at a time and you should find the open circuit

Hello and welcome to Fixya!

As a first course of action, I strongly suggest that you remove the positive batter connector and let it sit for atleast 5mins. before reconnecting it. This will reset the system and can get your vehicle back to it's normal operation.

Please do keep me posted on the progress. I'll be glad to help you out. Hope this helps and thank you for using Fixya! Have a good one!

Where is the DRL sensor found on the 1997 Sunfire??

There isn't a "sensor" per say. The DRL's are controlled by a microprocessor on the instrument cluster. The processor looks for a voltage drop on the ground side of the headlamp circuit. If it see's voltage it will ground the DRL relay.

The DRL relay is under/behind the drivers side headlamp assembly. It will have two orange, black, blue, and green w/ black wires at the connector.

If you need further assistance with your problem don't hesitate to ask!

Where is the DRL Module on a 2003 Sunfire?

Fuse panel left side of dash. It's not a typical module it's only a relay. Your instrument cluster has a microprocessor which energizes the relay. In another post someone said there is a resistor behind right headlamp that could be your problem, I haven't as of yet checked the schematics to confirm but sounds right.

I have a Pontiac Sunfire 2001 2.2, DRL is flashing that will eventually cause a Service Alarm on my panel. I could bypass the alarm by turning my headlight manually. What could be the possible problem?

Check for corroded wires. The wiring harness starts under the battery tray and sometimes the battery leaks acid on the connector and corrodes it. If the connector looks good and the bulbs are good then more than likely the harness is rubbing between the washer bottle and the body creating an open or short to ground in either the pink wire or the blue wire to the headlights.
