If it were a short it would blow a fuse. It sounds more like an open, in other words a lack of connection. I would suspect a problem with the headlight relay, under the hood. The next time it happens, give the relay box a good rap with a screwdriver handle or something similar and see if the lights come on. Even if they don't, that doesn't necessarily mean the relay is not the problem. Your light switch couldn't be the problem, and since sometimes it's one light and sometimes both, loose connections at the back of the bulb are probably not to blame.

Hi, I have a 2007 Lexus GS350 and after replacing the Xeon bulb the "Check Headlight" warning is still on, any idea how to reset? Thanks, Jeff

HI,
Looking online I'm not finding anything obvious.

Is it a 'Lexus' bulb? A specific bulb may be required to properly 'connect' w/the car's computer system.

Check your Owner's Manual and/or call the Dealer for more info.

GL,

What causes check engine light to come on GS 350 2007

Too many causes. The best way to know what causes the check engine light to turn on would be to connect the diagnostic tool and read the codes. If you are new to this, take your car to any professional mechanic, and he will diagnose your vehicle for free mostly.

When i turn on the head light it doest light up

Check and confirm, that headlight bulbs are glowing.If the bulb itself is faulty, it will not light.If bulb checked out, ok, then other possibility can be headlight fuse in the engine compartment fuse box.There are two 15a fuses located in the fuse holder assembly on the driverside engine compartment.Check both this fuses.Also check the relays in the fuse compartment.-------- If any of the fuse or relay is blown, replace that and see.But if all fuses and relay checked ok, then its quite possible that problem is with head light switch itself.Its getting short.------------
This should help.Thanks.Helpmech.
