Why do my head lights stop working when I turn them on?
Head lights stopped working but if you hold the high beam on they work previously when turning the lights on there was a pause before they went on ive checked the fuses and the globes and they seem ok Clicking this will make more experts see the question and we will remind you when it gets answered.
What to do if your headlight is not working?
If one or both headlights don’t work after you replace the bulbs, check the fuses. The low beams and high beams have their designated fuses for each of the circuits. In some car models, you will have a separate fuse for the left and right low beams. Locate the fuse box under the engine and by the dashboard.
Why are my high beam headlights not working?
In the case of high-intensity discharge (HID) headlights, or Xenon headlights, there’s an additional component. To get the xenon and salts to plasma state, the HID generator bumps the voltage up to 30,000 V, then stabilizes around 90 V when the bulb is in operation. If the generator fails, the bulb won’t light.
Why are the lights on my car not working?
On some vehicles, particularly those with HID headlights or solid-state circuit protection (Zener diodes or high beam circuit breakers) installing the wrong bulb might result in intermittent headlight operation or no high beams at all. The wrong bulb might not ignite at the right voltage or draw too much current for the circuit protection’s design.
What causes a head light to stop working?
Most headlight failures are caused by a blown a fuse. Other common problems include bad relay, switch, or module. Wiring problems, especially inside the headlight, can also cause a headlight to stop working.

Why are both of my low beam headlights not working?
If both of your headlights are no longer working, then it may be a fuse. Check your fuses to ensure that the fuse is good, and replace it if you can see that it is burned out. If the fuse is good, then it may be an electrical issue that goes from the fuse to the lamps.
Why are the head and tail lights not working?
The on-board computer turns on the tail and headlights according to the light outside the car. If it is dawn or dusk the head and tail lights will come on by themselves. The light sensors also switch off the daytime lights in some latest models. When the sensor is dirty or damaged it cannot tell if it is dark or day outside.
