Headlight Circuit Issue

[Greg Bosin]

I troubleshot an issue having no headlights or taillights. Through process of elimination of light assemblies, blown fuses and finally smell and smoke I found this module basically burning up and leaking. What is it? It's on the drivers side above the foglight.
This is a gen 1 2001, Canadian version with full time DRL. I pulled the DRL fuse a long time ago as it was causing my headlights to fluctuate. Is this that module? When I unplugged it my lights were restored and fused quit blowing.

Update, it is a DRL module, I replaced it and all is well
