Headlight issue
Friday, September 30, 2011 1:31 PM
Okay, basically on my drivers side, my low beams don't work.. Unsure on my high beams. BUT my DRL's work just fine.

I assumed it was the bulb, so I replaced it...no luck. What should be my next step?

Check for power and ground.

Do you have a voltmeter?

I dont have a voltmeter but I can get access to one really easily. The inside headlight indicator started flashing. Which by the manual says it is a bulb or a relay, anyone know how to check the relay?

swap the relay out with another one, also you can visually inspect it for any damage, aka burn marks/scorches, you can probably smell it too to find out if its burnt inside. basically look for signs that it has been toasted.
