Help with lights please!!!

Ok so I’ve seen several pictures of trucks with all there lights on but when I turn my headlights on only the main head light (hi/low) is on? Does anyone know how to make it to where all of them are one such as the ones in the pictures below.
Do I need a drl module?




Thank you!

do you mean to have headlights AND running lights on?
that is controlled by the headlight switch. as they age they burn up from heat.
and the heat also melts the plug making the pins loose contact.
new switch and plug are cheap and easy to change.
