Here can find the 1998-GMC-Jimmy-Owners-Manual
Check underhood fuse box the DRL relay, test good ground; DRL location on 1998 GMC Jimmy... there is a sensor on the right speaker grill on top
of the dash that turns the headlights on at night or any time it there is
low light, you can't turn them off for any reason without turning the key
off. Remove the two screw and unplug the senser, using a diode (any size)
as a jumper to trick it to think it is always daylight. if it does not
work turn the diode around, tape it in place.
Hope this helps.
[Information] For a 2002 Toyota Camry, the Daytime
Running Lights (DRL) operate utilizing the High Beams (inner Lamps closer to
the center of the vehicle front) at a reduced power.
[The troubleshooting process:] Review the Owner's Manual and ensure the test
configuration matches the following criteria:
1. According to the 2002 Toyota Camry Owner's Manual (Check your Owners Manual):
"The DRL system will make your headlights come on at a reduced brightness
when:
The light switch s in the "DRL" position.
The ignition is on with the engine running.
The headlight switch is off.
The parking brake is released."
2. Set the Test Conditions according to Step 1 above.
3. Check the headlight bulbs to ensure they are not
burned out. If one burns out, there is a fair chance that the other would have burned
out at the same time. Replace as necessary.
In this case, if the high beams operate, the DRLs should also operate.
4. Test the system, ensuring the step 1 conditions are set. (Engine running, Multi-function
Switch on Turn Signals in "DRL" position, headlight switch off
(repeating what the manual says -- it should be obvious that in the
"DRL" position, the headlight switch should be off / do not have the
switch positioned to "High Beam"), and the Parking Brake
"off").
5. If DRL lights do not work, check the engine compartment Fuse and Relay Box.
there is a 5 Amp DRL fuse -- replace it with the spare. Test (step 4).
6. If it does not work, swap around or replace relays -- there are three (3).
Any one of them could be bad (stuck or burned out). Test (step 4).
7. Other less likely possible issues
could be that the Multi-function Switch is broken or a connection / wire is
broken. [Beyond the scope of this
process.]
My problem was that the test configuration did not have
the engine running and parking brake off - Step 1. Problem solved with much
thought, repetitive tests on the vehicle and going back to the basics -- what
does the Owner's Manual say and where are the applicable fuses and relays
located?

I do not find any relay for the high beams. I'm looking at a electrical drawwing and there is no relay for the high beams.
What is the clock spring and how do I check it? Is there any way to check the DRL module? Can you send a wiring diagram from 1998 Jimmy?
Can you send me a electrical drawing for the DRL system on a 1998 jimmy. The one in the Hayes does not match
