Default Headlight only work in auto when dark.

Cant figure out why my headlight are only working in auto. Cant turn on running light or headlight unless its after dark and in auto. Anyone have any ideas on what the issue would be. I changed out a whole new turnsignal/wiper switches on the steering column. There's no fuses for them under the dash or in the engine bay that I can find.
any help is appreciated, thanks.

You have two headlight fuses and a headlight relay located under the hood. My suspicion is your relay is bad.

mine as well. Parking light come on but headlight will not unless in auto and dark or the sensor covered up. I have looked and looked. Someone said it the intergrated relay behind the fuse box. I haven’t gotten around to pulling mine out yet
