What happens when both low beams die at the same time?

What happens when both low beams die at the same time?

Both headlights low beams are… Both headlights low beams are dead, died at a same time. High Beams are OK< I can lock them and/or flash them no problems. Checked fuses all OK, no power on the fuses for low beams.

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.

Is it OK to flash the high beams?

High Beams are OK< I can lock them and/or flash them no problems. Checked fuses all OK, no power on the fuses for low beams. Any ideas? There really is nothing to consider here besides the column ecu/switch and the front ecu (relay box) if you are not seeing power at the fuse.

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?

Why are the high beams locked on my Outlander?

Of course a factory scan tool is cost prohibitive. However since we are seeing the high beams lock, this is a GOOD sign for the switch and the column ecu. If the column ecu were not seeing the headlight switch turn on, then it would not allow locking of the high beam unless there were a very specific failure (unlikely).

What to do if your low beams stop working?

My low beams suddenly stopped working. All the fuses are good. I swapped the relay and that was not the problem. The bulbs have less than 100 hours on them. I have read about similar problems. Was there a recall? What are my next steps? Any advice would be appreciated. Click to expand… Do your DRLs work?

Why is my car’s high beam light not working?

Make sure to use the right high beam bulb for your vehicle. 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.
