No low beam on Head lights
No low beam on Head lights
As if all other problems were not good enough with my car,
Yesterday I noticed that head lights are not coming on. Highbeem works fine, fog lights work fine, but no low beam.
Any one has suggestion on what could be wrong ?
Thanks

perharps I'm stating the obvious here but I'm not sure if you know this- our cars have a single bulb that has both the high and the low beam filaments. One, ussually the low beam can and will burn out before the other as its used a lot more. Simply put- replace the bulbs.
And I'd replace both left and right bulbs at the same time otherwise you'll be looking at the same problem a few weeks later.

If you have aftermarket bulbs from an autoparts store then your harness is probably burnt. Unplug the bulb and look into the harness and if one of the three slots is chared and melted then you found your problem. You can get new harnesses at the autoparts store and just wire them up. I had this problem a while back when I had those HID knock off bulbs.
I checked all over, couldn't find fuse for low beams. Can anyone please give some hint where its located.
Again High beam works fine so fuse has to be for low beam only, and definately its not under hood. Dash fuse box have no mention which fuse is what.
Any help is really appriciated

What are you running? High wattage bulbs? Regular bulbs? Higher wattage bulbs could have damage the harness as previously stated, but most likely its the fusable link. You might have to trace the wires back to find that one. The fuse box inside does show exactly what the fuses are. Its on the back of the panel. There's a list for the engine bay fuse box as well. And you're sure the bulbs just arnt burnt out correct?

Just get a test light, plug it into the middle hole in the headlight socket, turn the light on, if the light lights up you need new bulbs. If it doesn't double check by probing the middle wire on the headlight socket further up in the harness incase it may have burnt out near the bulb. If still no luck it could possible be the stalk switch if the fuses are all good.
