SOURCE: headlights

disconnect the module that is mounted in front of the fuse box .Then carefully clean the the connectors ,they are usually pretty dirty.After they are clean put it back 2gether.If it doesnt solve the prob then u might have to stick some washers on your bottom screws so that your module is angled in.This will ensure a solid connection.

Try resetting the computer. Unhook both battery cables and ground them out to the frame. This will bleed off any charge in the computer. Do this for at least 60 seconds. Hook the battery back up and check for messages.

If that doesn't help, make sure you have the correct bulbs. The computer sends a small electrical pulse to the lights to test them, several times a minute. If you've ever upgraded your lights (like to HID lights) or replaced the bulbs with something not OEM equivalent, this cal cause the "Lamp Out" condition.

Only one head light works at a time, diferent light in all positions

Most likely the high beam filament is burnt out on your left light, and the low beam filament is burnt out on your right light. My first recommendation would be to purchase a couple of headlamp bulbs, install them and see how they work, then post back if you are still having an issue

I have a 2002 dodge grand caravan the headlights. One works on dim and the other works on bright. I've replaced both headlights and it did not fix it. What do I do next?

Sounds like a wiring problem. You may need a repair book to track it all down. Could be a ground connection too.
The headlight switch sends power to the dimmer, then thru the body control module, then the high and low beam relays, then the four fuses, then the actual headlights. So you should have power on the low or high beam fuses depending on which way the dimmer switch is positioned.

My 1984 chevrolet silverado high beams lights works and low beam lights, turning lights, emergency light and brakes lights don't work. I need help!

Those lights are on different circuits. The high and low beam lights are powered thru the headlight switch, the turn signals, brake, and hazards go thru the turn signal switch.
I would want to know if each circuit has power at the switch that controls it.

High beam headlights stuck on replaced switch same problem

It can be issue with headlight switch,but as its already been replaced.Try disconnecting high beam headlight wiring from headlight assembly and reconnect direct external wire from headlight switch to headlight assembly,then by switch see if headlight is getting off and turning on or not.

On a 2002 dodge ram 1500 truck the brake lights and the turn signals and winshield wipers dont work the only brake light that works is above the cab. and the turn signal flashes on the dash like they are...

I suspect a bad multi function switch located in the left hand side of the steering column. This switch controls your high/low beams/wiper delay/windshield washer/turn signals and hazards.
