Replace Low Beam, now DRL dash light is on

Hello all,

First off I am a newb here, so if my answer exists in a previous post, please let me know and I will read it.

Okay on to my query...

I replaced the low beam bulb in my 2004 Accord EX V6. When I went back and turn the car on, the light works on low beams but the DRLs (I'm from Canada = DRLs...) don't work now and the DRL warning light is on.

Any thoughts as to what I may have done wrong. My first guess is wrong bulb...

When I turn the lights on to low beam mode, the DRL warning light turns off, so I will just drive like that I suppose.

Any tips would be great.

Thanks!

JB
