How to connect low beam to high beam?
Using a single pole single throw relay. Connect one side of coil to ground. Connect other side of coil to high-beam wire. Connect one side of contact to low beam wire. Connect other side of contact to high beam wire. Alternative – Connect other side of contact to Battery +ve.
Why are both low and high beam headlights not working?
If both low and high beam not working only common thing to both is the ground wire….see diagram…verify by connecting circuit tester from positive battery terminal to ground wire in the plug once disconnected from the headlight bulb on that side….you could check yourself by checking the ground wire on the other working headlight. Any luck yet?
What to do if your low beam light is not working?
If both low and high beam not working only common thing to both is the ground wire….see diagram…verify by connecting circuit tester from positive battery terminal to ground wire in the plug once disconnected from the headlight bulb on that side….you could check yourself by checking the ground wire on the other working headlight.
Is there a fuse for the high beam headlamp?
No fuse aside from the BCM mega fuse, which would affect more than just one headlamp, fuse 74 is the high beam, but for both sides, The power to the headlamps is controlled by the BCM. Sounds like either the bulbs or the wiring to the right lamp. The BCM does split the circuits to either headlamp, so it is possible there’s a fault there as well.

Why are the high beams on my car not working?
If the high beams function but don’t seem to light your way, especially if you drive an older vehicle with polycarbonate headlight lenses, your car may be a victim of headlight fogging. This isn’t simply scuffing, but an actual chemical change from polycarbonate’s exposure to solar ultraviolet light and caustic exhaust emissions.
What to do when your low beam light goes out?
Disconnect the battery. Be sure you remember which side of the car has a blown out low beam bulb before disconnecting the battery. To disconnect it, use a hand or socket wrench of the appropriate size to loosen the nut holding the ground cable onto the negative terminal of the battery.
What can cause a low beam headlight to be dim?
If it is, use a voltmeter to see how much power, if any, is reaching the headlights. If there is no power reaching them, there is a break in the wiring somewhere between the fuse panel and the headlights themselves. Thanks! What can cause the light to be dim except when on the high beam setting?
Where are the low beam and high beam relays?
There is however also a single lowbeam relay, which gets its signal from the body control module. So have a look at this relay first. You could swap the low beam and high beam relay to be sure that the problem is the relay. Both relays are on the junction block, above the fuse box.
How many fuses are in front low beam light?
There are 2 10 Amp fuses, one for each front low beam light (#14 and 15 in the fuse box), so won´t expect for both to blow at the same time. There is however also a single lowbeam relay, which gets its signal from the body control module.
Why are my low beams not turning on?
For the wiring inspection, just have a look if there is no isolation shaved through or any other bare metal part which could get in contact with ground and cause the fuse to melt. Frango100;411244I don’t know how you wired the whole thing.
Do you need to replace both high and low beams?
Some vehicles use a single bulb for both high and low beams while others do not. If the high beam on the same side is also out, it may be one bulb. You do not need to purchase specific bulbs for each side, but identifying which is the blown out bulb will help you to replace it without having to start the vehicle again.
