Low beam headlights out. Fuses are ok.

I have a 2001 volvo V70 T5. The other night I got into the car and tured it on. AND NO LOW BEAMS! The high beams work fine.
All the fuses are good. Now one of the bulbs was burnmed out and the other wasn't. Holy cow what do I do? HELP ME PLEASE!

did you check relays?

Did you check ALL the fuses? There are left and right low beam fuses in the engine bay panel and there is also a low beam fuse in the passenger compartment panel. If not, check the passenger compartment first. That one provides power to both the left and right low beam circuits.

Cheers,

Bill

If the fuses check out, double check that other bulb. I had both low beams burn out within a day of each other recently.

On the side that the headlamp is out, check and see if you have the voltage coming to the socket on the low beam.If you have high beam working on the same side, than the ground connection at the body ground is ok.you may have a bad bulb or a bad lamp socket, on the ground side.If you have no low or high beams on the same side but have power coming to the lamp sockets,then check the main head lamp ground circuts. for the left head lamp circuit, the ground is g104,rear of left front fender. the ground for the right headlamp is g105 located at rear of right fender. the colour of the ground circuit wire is black.

Bill9 can you please tell me what number the low beam fuse is on the passenger fuse box. It's not on the diagram

+1 to what billr99 mentioned. Check all the fuses. sometimes the fuse for something else will blow and it will affect others.

Quick question you don't have the "super blue" bulbs do you? If so check the middle pin on both bulb connectors those bulb pull too much through the ground and burn up the pin at the connector and can cause them to not work! Hope that helps a little!

No I do not have the super blue bulbs. But thank you!

I have a 2000 S70. The L lowbeam headlight is out. The fuse and headlamp are ok. I checked the voltage to the fuse and nothing registers for the L lowbeam. The R lowbeam fuse registers 14.8V. What should I check next?
