Do you know where the DRL relay is located ? Pull the relay out to see if the lights go out . Is the daytime running lamp indicator lit on the instrument cluster ? Explain this its like all got is day time driving lights on bright work ? The high beams work ? No low beams .
Could have a faulty DRL module .
When the headlamp and panel dimmer switch is in the HEAD position, the headlamp and panel dimmer switch directs voltage to either the low beam headlamps or the high beam headlamps. This depends on the headlamp and panel dimmer switch position. When the headlamp and panel dimmer switch is in the HEAD position, not only is voltage available for the headlamps, but the daytime running lamps (DRL) module receives a HEADLAMPS ON signal. When the DRL module receives this signal, the module disables the DRL operation, if the ignition switch is in the RUN position, the BULB TEST position, or the START position.

I had the same problem. The solution is simple; the ignition switch needs to be replaced. This is an easy do-it-yourself project. Here are instructions:

Check for a switch on ebay, they are about $15. After 10 years they wear out.

This is cuased by the multifuntion switch that is located on the steering column. It is the swith with the headlight dimmers on it.
You just need to remove the steering column bezels and replace the multifunction switch.
SOURCE: main headlights wont work but
these switches operate on copper slide and most times these slides get corroded with a green substance that a simple sand paper job will take care of however there are a lot of part so have a mechanic do it
SOURCE: Low Beam headlights not working
The daytime running lights run the high beam bulbs at low voltage so it sounds like you need to put the relays back where they were and either replace the low beam bulbs or repair the wiring to them.Also the relay you removed could be defective.
SOURCE: headlight assembly switch does not work properly
I would say try replacing headlight switch...I have the same problem and will be doing that tomorrow
