1998 Camaro front turn sginal issue

I've been all over the place looking for a solution to my issue, and I cant find anything to help me. This was the last thing I could think of. My front right and left turn signal do not work. They will come on when I turn the key, but they stay a solid glow even when I activate the turn signal. The light in the back of the car work as they are supposed to. I have bought new bulbs, new bulb connectors and wired them up, changed both the hazard flasher and turn signal flasher under the steering column. I can not think of anything else. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

At the risk of sounding stupid, where would that module be located? And thank you for the response.

Re: 1998 Camaro front turn sginal issue

A simple google search yielded this result:

The daytime running light module is behind the radio. It's just a bit bigger than a deck of cards and has two plugs on it. The left and right signals do go through separate relays, so it's possible for only one side to fail, however, the signals coming out of my DTRL module are good and neither front bulb lights! I have the same symptoms as you (parking lights alone will light the front bulbs).

Thank you for all your help. I'll get on that as soon as I have the free time.
