The day time running lamps are the high beam lamps , just going through the DRL resistor . Your low beam bulb could be bad (open) . Check voltage with DVOM - digital volt ohm meter , there should be three wires at the headlamp socket , check the orange wire for battery voltage with low beams on .

SOURCE: Driver side headlight bulbs burned out on 2003 VW Golf

There is a light cover in front of the battery... take this off and then look for the metal clamps holding the light housing in.  (I say clamps, but they're more like glorified paper clips on either side of the fixture.)  Press in on each side, pushing the clamps towards each other and pull the fixture out.

How do you change a headlight bulb on a 2003 Toyota Celica GT? Under the plastic covering the headlight there is a lot of fog and condensation and I want to clean it off, so how do I take off the plastic that covers the headlight?

Seem to be seal is wear off
already on the front cover
The way to open that
1. There is four screws at the back of
the headlights and unscrew them
2. Pull the headlight and dry it
by wiping or heat of the sun or
anything that can release the fog
3. Buy silicon and seal the headlight
gap with silicon and let it dry for a hour
This will help kept away fog
and condensation for sure

If your Santa Fe has a V6 engine 2.7L , it sounds like you have an ignition break down happening. You will need to renew all the ignition wires and check the two coils also for arcing .

2015 Hyundai Santa Fe. One headlight flashing on it?

This suggests the battery, but I have other ideas

https://www.google.com/search?q=2015+Hyundai+Santa+Fe.+One+headlight+flashing

This says it has a standard H8, halogen or LED or HID. If someone has replaced Halogen with either HID or LED, the control circuits can interfere with the car's BCM. Both HID and LED can flash when they are failing.

Or you have a loose connection. Power or ground.

03 hyundai santa fe blows ecm fuses after car is warm up and you

There is obviously a short circuit somewhere. Best solution, take vehicle to nearest Hyundai Service Center, pay diagnostic fee. They will give you an estimate of repairs (parts, labor, tax, time-frame, etc.). This way you'll find out EXACTLY what the problem is and what's required to fix it.

perhaps i missed something here... lowbeams and daytime lights are about the same.... be that as it may... the merely obvious thing is that the low beams are burnt out.... next thing would be that the relay for the day time lights could be defective... it's often mounted on the firewall.
