Post subject: No drivers side high beam or day time running lights?

Question 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.
