The Daytime Running Lamps Module is located at LH front corner of engine.

there are two fuses for autolamps. I assume that your headlights are working though.... right????

And of course, there is also a "park lamp" relay involved.

I replaced the fuse #4 in the power distribution (engine compartment) the lights turn on por couple times and after the fuse get bad again.
Maybe a problem with the module?
all the rest of the lights are ok.
thanks all

I don't believe the daylight running module and autolights are "directly" related. I only have 96 wiring which indicates two interior fuses for autolights.... if you are blowing a power distribution fuse (on my 96, its appears to be a 30a fuse 7), then you are blowing a fuse that is associated with a pull-up relay... the headlamp relay. It is possible that this relay is bad (ie. windings on the pull up side are fried / lower resistance than normal). I would measure ohms on between 1 and 2 or possibly just replace it as they are pretty cheap. If that does solve your problem, the connection for this goes to a couple of points which may indicate a cable problem.
