Heeeellllpppp!!!!!

I need some serious trouble shooting help!! My headlights are not working! Low and high beam!! I have a 2004 Maxima SE non-HID The only lights I have working are my parking lamps and one driving light.I havent touched anything on the car and havent installed any aftermarket parts except an AEM intake which was done a year and a half ago!! This sucks bad!! I went thru all of the wiring and traced it over to the passenger side. I wiggled all of the connections and relays and no help! Sometimes you can get lucky that way!! Anyone have any Ideas or ever had this happen before? My warranty ran out so I am on my own!! Help please!!! Aron

I havent pulled them out to look but isnt there a seperate bulb for low and high? Wouldnt that be weird if all of them were burnt? Or if there is just one for low and high wouldnt it be strange if both went out at the exact same time?

Believe it or not it was the headlights that were burnt out. They went out at the exact same time! I happened to have some 9006 silverstars in my garage so I put them in. I didnt want to buy the replacement bulbsif I have an electrical problem. It was weird that they went out at the same time!! I am gonna keep an eye on them!!! THanks for all of the help and ideas, I was just perplexed that they both went out together!! Aron

Nope, long out of it with miles!! 85,000 By the way-the 9006's suck!!!! Big difference in lighting! Im just seeing if it was just the bulbs or somthn else. I might switch to HID's.

You can get some replacement 9012's on ebay for a reasonable price. Do a search on there and you should find them. $30 a pair IIRC.

Go with the HID's. After driving with them on the Max, I'm looking to put them on my truck.
