SOURCE: high beams wont turn on.

First place to start is with headlight switch. I did have a case many years ago when both high beams were blown out at once, but this is rare. When you have the headlight switch out, jump power from te low beams to the high beam contacts. If high beams come on, replace switch.

SOURCE: drl not working nor are low beams high beams work properly

Ok look under the bagtterry tray, there is a black box bolted to the body, it is the headlight ground and has a really bad tendency to corode due to the design.

SOURCE: LOW BEAMS NOT WORKING 2002 FORD FOCUS

Hi. i recommend a thorough inspection of the wiring harness and harness connectors that led to the actual headlights. use a volt meter to test the current flow to the connectors. pull the connectors from the back side of the headlights and test all cooper contacts inside the connectors. If the wire contacts all show voltage, this will confirm a switch malfunction. it should be replaced in this case.

Now, if one or more contacts on the wires harness fail to produce any voltage, this will confirm a faulty wiring harness. replace the wiring harness in this case.

Make sure the headlight switch is in the on position when testing the wires.

SOURCE: Low beams stopped working

There are two fuses...one 15amp that is for the daylight running resistor, the second one is a 20amp which is for the headlights...both of them are IP(Inside Panel), not UP(Underhood Panel) which means both are inside the vehicle. The dimmer switch receives power from the 20amp which by switching it causes the power to go to the high or low beam. That being the case, it would appear that your dimmer switch which is under the dash, located on left lower side of steering column, would be the likely suspect.

2006 Ford Taurus headlamp wiring

If this fuse box diagram below is correct you have a fuse for left low beam head light and another fuse for right low beam head light and a third fuse for both the high beam headlights. If the fuse is good for the right I think I would take the left low beam head light and put on the right side and see if it works on the right side. If you think you got the wiring correct. It may be the bulb is bad from the wires which shorted out. A voltmeter or test light to the socket would save some time switching the lights. I have had the socket bad before and had to change the bulb socket.

06 ford Taurus lights will go bright for just a flash when on high beam or low beam. like there is a very brief power surge.

Check the DRL module , daylight or auto light module , kick the relay , if it persists replace .

1996 ford explorer head light has high beam but no low beam. Im wondering if it is a ground that is loose or maybe my dimmer switch is failing

The components involved in your headlamp system vary considerably depending on whether your vehicle is equipped with "Auto Lamps", "Daytime Running Lamps" and/or "Fog Lamps". In any of these cases, both the High Beam and the Low Beam elements share the same grounds. Yes, it could be the dimmer switch. It could also be the Daytime running lamp module or the Headlamp Switch or the Auto Lamp Control Unit. It is also possible that you simply have both of your Low Beam Headlamp elements burned out or have bad sockets where they connect to the wiring harness.

2000 Ford Mustang GT. High beams BOTH WORK. Signal lights BOTH WORK. Low beam ONLY works on the right side. Both bulbs have been replaced. What is going on???? This is driving me mad!!

Have you checked the fuses yet? The low beams use 2 different fuse for the left and right lamps. The fuse for the left lamp is #10 in the central junction box located behind the dash to the left of the steering column.

The headlights on my 1994 ford taurus sedan are too dim. Even the high beams are not bright enough for safe nighttime driving. Also, the daytime running lights are always on the high beam position. I even...

the lenses are most likely clouded over? yellowed? sometimes you can buy a kit to polish them, but I would recommend replacement, polish doesnt last long, and you will need to replace them anyhow. the DRL lights are operating normally
