Drl out after attempting lux install

So I tried to install luxes today but had no luck and decided to try another day. I tried to install the oem back in (not completely locked and didn't want to force it). When I turned the car back on, the drl on the side I was working on doesnt turn on anymore.

Im almost positive it's not a shorted bulb. Could it be a code?

Help!

I'd take apart everything and reconnect the lux without a complete install. Just connect the two connectors and turn on the car to see if it lights up.

The install of the lux is nearly impossible to really mess up so take your time and just evaluate what your doing the whole way through.

There are people local everything that could lend a hand if you continue to run into trouble.

The DRL bulb might have gotten unplugged by accident, double check to make sure there are no loose wires
