DRL warning light on sometimes

Hey guys I seem to have ran into an issue with my 2008 Acura tl type s.
Sometimes the daytime running lights work good no problem and sometimes I get this yellow drl warning light on my dashboard and the lights don't work but my night lights do work no problem. Any idea how to trouble shoot this? Thanks.

check the connections plugging to your daytime running light bulbs.

check the DRL fuse to make sure it's not loose or corroded some how. The DRL fuse is located in the fuse box by your left foot when you sit in the drivers seat.

A loose connection is what it sounds like, as vietxquanstah said.

The problem is the DRL relay located under the driver's dash, it has cracked soldered joints in the middle of the circuit board. Re solder them and it'll be good again. There is a you tube on it, how to fix a drl.

Yea I would try either of these before looking into the relay
