Can a high beam light work on a low beam light?
Bulbs were fine, fuses were fine, relays were fine. For the record, there’s only one fuse and one relay per bulb, so if it was the fuse or relay then the bulb would be completely out — no low OR high beam.
Can you drive with only high beams on?
Not practical to drive at night with just high beams. The closest dealer is 90 miles away. Both low beams went out at night on the road. I discovered later that the high beams work. I checked fuses. No problem. I bought and installed bulbs in each light one at a time and tried the lights. Low beams still out, but high beams work.
Why is my low beam not turning on?

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?
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.
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 headlight blows out?
You can often tell when a headlight blows out while you’re driving, but confirm which bulb has actually blown out by leaving your headlights on and getting out of the vehicle to check. Then get back in your vehicle and turn on your high beams. Some vehicles use a single bulb for both high and low beams while others do not.
