DRL/Hi-Beams problem :(, Blown bulbs, not working! Options

[GrimReaper]

Hi, My wife's Celi has Daytime running lights and they are not working at all, neither the hi beams (related). Everything was working great since I made an engine bay pressure wash, but I didn't shoot water directly on relays and fuses, or bulb connections. I recently realize thet they were not working anymore, when I remove the bulbs (both) they were blown, tinted with black like fumes or something, and a large bubble were fromed in the side of them, seemed like they were having more than 12 volts maybe I replace them with new ones, and it's not working anymore. Anyone here have an idea, or wiring diagrams, it would be apreciated,

Thanx for the hints

Does the high beam indicator illuminate on the dashboard?

Check the following:

* Headlight High LH, RH and DRL fuses. They are in the small fusebox on top of the radiator.
* Daytime running lights relay. It is in the drivers' kick panel.


Less likely:
* Daytime running lights relays #3 & #4. They are in the small fusebox on top of the radiator. They would both have to be burnt out to describe the symptoms, though.
* Check your dome light works. If not, replace the 10A dome fuse in the drivers' kick panel (it supplies power to the DRL integration relay (ECU)).
* The DRL integration relay (ECU). I believe it is under the steering wheel somewhere.
* Steering stalk controls (combination switch)

We have DRL's???? Well, I mean, is it an option? I know I don't have it....


Man I feel like a noob now

[Culpable04]

some countries required DRL, Canada for an example, Canadian Market Celica's have DRL, I don't think it was an option, it was more to satisfy local laws, like Cali smog for US celicas.

Exactly, required by canadian laws since december 1989 (still required)

Thanx for the informations BloodyStupidDavey, I'll have a look as soon as my wife comes back from work

You were wright BloodyStupidDavey, the DRL relay #4 was burnt out, packed with rust, thanx a lot
