Only one headlight.
So I have had headlight and some electrical problems for awhile now. Currently I only have one working headlight. I'll try to explain allthe problems I've had and everything I have done and replaced.
Symptoms since I bought the rig:
Things replaced and end result.:
So what do you think I should do now. I'd love to have both headlights working again. Should I try and replace all the relays? Where are all the relays? I think all the fuses are good, but are there any in weird places that are hard to find? Any help would be fantastic!
thanks!!
Symptoms since I bought the rig:
- No high beams.
- Right blinker blinks at double time.
- Headlights do not turn off immediately after car is turned off. They linger for a minute or three
Things replaced and end result.:
- Replaced multi switch.
- Still no high beams and blinker still blinks at double time.
- Replaced headlights with LED beams
- replaced headlight harness with putco brand and used the relays provided.
- Also tried replacing headlight switch.
- Still no good, replaced multiswitch again.
- Success!!! Headlights and highbeams!! w00t!!
- But headlights will only both turn on if I hit the hi-beams once. They also only turn off if I hit the high beams.
So what do you think I should do now. I'd love to have both headlights working again. Should I try and replace all the relays? Where are all the relays? I think all the fuses are good, but are there any in weird places that are hard to find? Any help would be fantastic!
