Assuming that you don't have the owners manual, in my 1999 SL2, the DRL relay is in the underhood electrical fuse box which is a rectangular box (maybe 4"x8") to the right of the battery. Unscrew the knob, remove the plastic cover and you'll see a bunch of fuses and relays. The diagram for what is where is molded into the inside of the cover.
Check the daytime running lights module. This has failed with other manufactures resulting in lights that stay on, or are very dim while the vehicle is running.
DRL = Daytime Running Lights, which is essentially your high beam bulbs manipulated to be dimmer.
The main fuse panel is located under the the hood on the drivers side. remove the cap and refer to the owners manual.I had a problem with mine and found a break in the wire.It wasn't the relay.
in the fuse box under the hood on the right side near the battery
saturns fuses for the cars are located behind the battery
The L-series manual shows 4 instances of this icon. If the light shows: 1) lines angled down = HEADLIGHT LOW BEAM 2) lines stright out = LIGHTS ON HIGH BEAM 3) lines broken (dots) = DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS 4) lines show verticle squiggle = FOGLIGHTS
There are 2 fuse boxes on a 1999 Saturn SL2. The fuse for the tail lights is in the Electrical fuse box under the hood. It is located on the drivers side in front of the battery.

Daytime Running Lamps are automatic if you have the car turned on, in gear, the parking brake off and the ambient light is bright enough to not trigger the automatic switch. If however the car is on, it's in gear, the parking brake is off and the ambient light is bright and the day time running lamps are still off then you may need to just turn your headlights off. If that doesn't fix it, you may have a bad resistor, a burnt out light, a burnt out fuse or bad wiring. The first three are easy to fix. The last is not.

My dashboard needles and half the lights of my dashboard quit working MONTHS ago and I'm too nervous to go see how much it will cost me. I have the same car, 2001 L-300 and I have had SO MANY problems with it, that this is one I'm learning to live with until I find the time to get it looked at. If you do find out what it could be, I'm curious to know as well!DRL (daytime running lights) - its likely the relay, & dashboard issue's commonly caused by lost ground distribution. This is not absolute.
Interesting?? I had my starter and battery replaced on my 2002 Saturn VUE and within a few months my low beams ands daytime running lights went out. Dealer says the post in the fuse block is burnt and the entire block needs to be replaced at a cost of over $600.
