How do i find out if my 2002 gmc sierra pick up truck has day time running lights?

It should have. Truck has to be running, in drive during daylight hours for the DRL to be on. Kinda hard to check if you are the driver. Have someone outside the truck watch to see of they are working or not. If they don't work there is a good chance the bulbs are burned out.

How to disarm the automatic headlight system on a 2000 Chevrolet Silverado?

This information is in the owner's manual. If you don't have one, you can download it from http://gmownercenter.yahoo.com. Push the dome override button three times (in, out, back in). You'll hear the familiar "ding" and the parking, headlights, and taillights will go out. You can then control them using the parking / headlight switch. You can also idle the truck with the lights off by starting it with the parking brake applied. You can also use the switch to turn on the headlights during the day (rain, etc.). Here's a photo of the location of the button under the headlight switch: http://monsterautoparts.com/chevrolet/chevy%20truck/_images_chevy_truck/D1534G.jpg
