Daytime Running Lights stopped working on my 2009 R3

My daytime running lights suddenly stopped working. All other lights work fine. Anyone have any suggestions on what it might be?

Thanks in advance.

I'll double check the high beams. Could that be the issue?

If the high beam bulbs are burnt out the DRL's wont work ( they use high beam bulbs)

Likely it is the DRL module...they have crappy relays that fail easily ( on the 04-08's anyway

)

I checked and my passenger high beam is out. Hopefully that's the problem.

I have the same problem on my 07... I am not bothered by not having DRL or high beam so I haven't fixed it and likely won't fix it. Don't feel like giving anyone $200-300 for something that I don't need.

Or you could buy a $10 bulb from Crappy Tire and do it yourself.
