SOURCE: starter enabler fuse blows which means the starter motor does not work until fuse is changed

It is possible that the starer is pulling too much amperage- 1st thing you need to do is find out what if any other consumers are on that circuit, 2nd you need to find out how much amperage is being consumed by the starter. 3rd test you wires most likely if a wire problem it is the heavy hot wire on the starter or the back of the alternator has a loose retaining nut

SOURCE: 2001 Toyota Corolla high beam lights are not

Your switch must be working since your indicator is telling you when the high beams are on, so my guess is that your bulbs are faulty. The high beam part. They probably burnt out one at a time, so you didn't notice until the second one went. Change your bulbs, and see if that solves it. If not, let me know.

SOURCE: low beams don't work - both out at the same time.

DID YOU CHECK THE BULBS?

Testimonial: "spot on."

09 Sonata both low beams stopped working this morning. Fuse was blown, replaced it as soon as I turned on key fuse blows. Switched relay...no help

If fuse is black when it blows is because of a short most likely a wire pinched against the body. Is fuse blows and not black than it is an overload at which I don't think that would be the case

My girl's '99 Hyundai Sonata all windows are stuck. I replaced the blown fuse, but the new one blew too. I watched a third fuse while someone else turned the key to the "on" position, and the...

Hi, I wouldn't open the door just yet. Not sure what you have now that someone has "made it to work," but below is the stock setup. I'm assuming the fuse that is blowing is the 10 amp fuse #16 in the dash fuse box. There is a relay in the passenger compartment relay box that you need to check. First pull the relay out and put a fresh fuse in. Does the fuse still blow when you turn the key on? If yes, suspect the fuse box itself has a short, or the wiring is not as it should be. If not, suspect the relay has a short--try another relay (you can borrow a similar relay from somewhere else in the car for troubleshooting). Please try this, and we'll go from there.

Both headlights stopped working on my 2005 santa fe highbeams work fine where do i begin troubleshooting problems?

First check the 15 amp H/LP (LOW) fuse in the engine compartment relay box. If good, try switching the high beam relay (same box as the fuse) with the low beam relay. If that gets your low beams to work, you need a relay. Please let me know if this doesn't work or if you have any questions.

If a bulb is out will it make 15A on #2 keeps on blowing out. Changed the relay, hi/lo beam switch. Low beams still won't work. Can't keep a fuse in it cause it blows out. This is for a 2000 Sonata 4 cyl....

the only thing that causes a fuse to blow is a short. I would say a wire is pinched somewhere, the question is how to isolate and fix. I guess have a handful of fuses, since you say it is the low beams I would disconnect one light and see if it blows the fuse. I am thinking that the most excellent place to start is where the battery is installed. As a wire may have been nicked or crimped, for the low beam on the passengers side. Hope this helped

2005 Dodge caravan. The Headlights are not staying on. When we turn the switch, sometimes they come on, sometimes they do not. It's getting worse.

Hello, on the van you have a high beam fuse and relay. On the low beam you also have a fuse and relay. Check the fuse/relay panel for a blown fuse controlling the low beam lights. If you do not find a blown fuse have some one to turn the key on and turn on the high beam lights. During this time locate the low beam headlight relay and place your finger on top of relay, have the other person to switch from high beam to low beam lights. You should feel a click in the relay when they make the switch from high to low beam. If not replace the relay and the problem should go away. Hope this will help you.

Thanks
