I am running 80/100w headlights and they quit working today. The highbeam light came on on the dash and i have no power to the pig tails at the lights. The bulbs are good the fuses all apear to be ok. The lights burnd out the pig tails so i got some new ones and now i have no power to them. i have replaced the pig tails w/ new ones and still no power. I heard a buzzing from under the dash on the passenger side but dont know what it was coming from... please help me i have to drive at 5:30 am tomorow morn... Thanks in advance

The day time running lamp relays are located behind the glove compartment. There are two relays on their own relay block. Swap them with each other and see what happens.

Any IDEA's about this....my regular headlights work fine, but when I flip the switch to turn on the bright lights, both regular and bright lights go off...leaving no headlights at all. This usually happens after a rain. Generally 3-4 days later everything is okay again????

Any ideas are appreciated [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
