My low beams stopped working, and when I switch to highbeams they turn on for a second (like I am flashing somebody my highbeams) and if I mess with the switch they will finally stay on. I am not sure if it is my headlights are messed up or if a fuse is blown?

Can somebody let me know where the fuse boxes are located? I know there is one under the hood, but is there a second one?

Thanks

Sounds like its switch related.

I found the fuse box in the kick panel and they were all good. When you say switch do you mean the lever that comes off the steering column that you switch the brights on and off, or something else? A location/part number/description would be greatly appreciated.

Here's an update:

I have everything taken off, I just can't get the switch out. I removed the **** by pressing the button on the right side of the switch and pulling it out. But now I can't get the actual switch out yet.

Any advice?

Thanks

Another update:

Got the switch out. Is there anyway to tell it's bad for sure? I mean my lights weren't working correctly and a few days ago there was some light smoke coming up from underneath the instrument cluster and above the steering wheel/column.

Bought a new switch for $16 from Advance Auto. Put the switch in and the lights are still acting up. If I pull the **** out for them to turn on, the only ones that turn on are the small rectangular lights below the headlights. I can turn my brights on and it will flicker for a second then turn on. Still no low beams.....

Any advice?

anyone figure this out?

Sound to me like you have a bad switch...it happens from time to time with all new parts...I'd go swap it out. Otherwise, it may be a headlight relay...

I think I need an upgraded wiring harness for the lights. stocks worked fine, as soon as I put in the brighter conversion it started messing up. I'll figure something out.
