    1999 SL2. My daytime running lights won't shut off when the car is
    turned off. I finally had to unplug the wiring from the lights.
    Here's the odd part, when the lights were stuck on, the bright lights
    indicator was illuminated on the dash, and would not turn off, even
    though the lights weren't on. Also, the odometer light came on during
    this problem, which hasn't worked in over a year. If I let the car sit
    for several hours, the driving lights operate properly, and the bright
    lights indicator is off, but when the car warms up, the situation
    repeats. I thought it might be the DRL relay, but Saturn told me
    probably not. Any thoughts?

    sounds like relay.. possibly contacts fusing then when it is cool they
    seperate. It more than likely is a relay, resister or capcitor if in
    the circuit.. worse case would be pcm
