SOURCE: Dashboard and tail lights out on 97" Nissan Sentra

I took my pathfinder to U-HAUL and asked them to check the towing lights. There was a pinched wire by my tail light and they cut it and changed it out for me, it was $5. I am so glad that I didnt take it to Nissan. My second step was going to be getting a new dimmer switch..but the guy who worked on my car said that wouldnt be the problem. He also told me that replacing a fuse that kept blowing out was dangerous and after the first time to get it checked out. Learn something new every day!!

SOURCE: headlights high beam light inside stay on

Do you have an aftermarket hitch?? I have seen a lot of issues with people having U-HAUL hitch installed with the convertor box. Whell, when the convertor box is installed, u-haul uses scotch locks, which after a while causes all kinds of electrical issues. including head light issues. Also check the convertor box. It may be faulty. Nissan make a very nice harness for the truck. no splicing needed. There is a single connector behind the bumper on passenger side. Get harness. That is if you have the u-haul convertor. If you dont, I would be looking at the head lamp switch.

SOURCE: low beam headlights do not work, but high beam headlights do

Clyde,

I've been troubleshooting this same problem on a different vehicle this week, and I can give you the steps I'd take.

1. If both sides went out at the same time, the problem is *NOT* likely to be the bulbs.

2. Check the fuses to see if both low beam lights are on the same fuse. Many cars have one fuse for low beam and another for high beam, so both lights out at the same time typically means fuse blown.

3. If the headlights are OK and the fuses are OK, then the problem is *LIKELY* the headlight switch. In my case, AutoZone has one and it can be installed easily; but in your case, that may not be as simple.

Please post your findings or comments.

What you have sounds like a Headlight SWITCH Problem, You can check the Fuse for them (DOUBTFULL) but its a Large one @ Power distribution Box Under Hood.

I have 98 cavalier. I turn the headlights on but the tailights dont come on and neither does the dashboard lights. The high beams work and the blinkers work and low beams but no taillights. I've checked...

See if you can get a wiring diagram and check each wire from the fuse to the lights. Or, you can look for a disconnected wire in the trunk and maybe get lucky.

2002 rendezvous low beams don't work. Fuses and bulbs fine. High beams work. Even swapped relays with high beams still no change. Running lights work but low beams don't in auto or manual. What else can...

What about the rest of the lights. The Auto and Manual function should turn the tail lights also. If they work, then it is a headlight wiring problem. If the tail lights are not working either, then it is the auto control module

Low beams dont work, only high beams do. 02 tacoma

If there is power there, then it has to be the bulbs. The trouble that most people have is, they don't see how both bulbs could burn out at once... and they're right. They don't. But you see vehicles with one headlight all the time. They don't know it unless you tell them or they happen to see it themselves. Then the second light burns out, and they think it's a major catastrophe, when in fact, it's just bulbs. The high beam still works because the bulb is double filament. The only other thing it can be is the dimmer switch, and since you switched it to high, it appears to be working. However, if it's not bulbs, it still could be the switch.
