can anyone tell me where the drl relay is located.
There isn't a relay. They are controlled by the FRM (footwell module). It's possible the FRM has taken a crap, because that's pretty common (are there any other errors or warnings on the dash? Do all the other lights work? What about the door locks and windows?)
Or the bulbs just burned out. That's a good possibility as well.

I would like to add some more info and thank you for responding.
I left my car in a "vetted" car park during a week long holiday. Jumped in and drove home but quickly noticed the light switch was in the off position and returned it to the "lights on" position I leave it continuously, wondering why it had been moved. I soon found out that I now get a dash board lights warning and beeps when about to get out and the lights now remain on. There are no other warnings or error messages and every thing else appears to work including lights. The annoying problem is the lights which used to switch off automatically now remain on. The only other thing I've noticed is there is no "enable/ disable daylight running lights" option in the lights menu on the LCD display. The model is the Exclusive Edition with built in sat nav LCD display.
I would appreciate any info on the FRM and how to gain access in the footwell.
Using your info I have found the part number of the footwell module and the location from the a seller. Thank again for taking the time to reply.
