DRL/Fog not turning off?

Hmmm, you're missing the point. The relays in the IPDM are not replaceable. Can't get to them. If this was a regular automotive relay, i'd have tried swapping it out

The IPDM is where all wires connect next to the battery and where most fuses are. The only relay that can be changed is the starter relay. All other relays are inside, soldered to the board.

Can you get access to the board? You nay be able to clean them even if they are soldered on...

Another alternative is just to rewire them yourself.. Just need a switched 12V source that has a big enough circuit to power them. Are we talking about the DRLs that come on the 13+ or is this specific to Canadian models?

Burnishing does away with the need to replace. Repair, not replace.

There should be a way to get to them (IIRC, they aren't glued/welded together) ... but it may be more work than it's worth. FSM may give you some clues on how to get it apart.

A good dose of contact cleaner, as mentioned above, will help any sticking that is caused by old lubricant.
