So, I bought a 2008 F150 a few months ago, and today when I was under the bumper poking around I saw a 2 connector wire that was disconnected hanging underneath the drivers side headlight (in fact it seems to go into the same bunch of wires that go to the headlight). It appears to belong to this 'module', but I have no idea what it is. The module was mounted high behind the bumper, below the headlight and quite close to the front.

I took some pictures of it (I plugged it back in, that's why the cable is connected in the pics, but it was disconnected before I did that). Nothing appears to be different when driving, so I'm at a loss. Any ideas? I googled the part number but no dice.

Thanks for any help!

It is the resistor for your daytime running lights. Unplug it and they turn off

 

Well that explains why I don't have any DRL lol, I thought someone unplugged a relay or something and of course when I plugged this guy in today it was night time so I didn't notice them turn on.

Thanks!

 

Google the part #....

Ford Part: RESISTOR ASY

 

Where exactly did you find the relay?? Is it directly under the drivers headlight or more to the left or right (if looking at the truck from the front)? Where does the wire begin to splice before it goes to the relay?
Thanks.
