Bulb Failure Low Beam - Both Sides

Post by CReid »

I received the message and the passenger side bulb was out. We replaced it, and two days later I got the same message, and they are now both out. Thinking it's a little two coincidental. Obviously I am no mechanic, but am needing to resolve this quickly since I may need to drive at night out of necessity. Thanks for ANY help anyone can give me!

The owner's manual describes how to replace the bulbs. Not uncommon for two to fail shortly after one another.

make sure you are using the correct bulbs
I always replace ALL bulbs on the circuit when 1 goes out

Thank you for the replies. Replaced bulbs in both sides and checked fuses. All were fine. Still no low beams. I hate to say it, but I think I'm going to have to take it somewhere.

You go and take a look under the hood,there is a fuses box sit right behind air filter housing box,open it up and check the fuse #2 15amps which is for controling both low beams and see if it is blown out if yes then it is the problem that you don't have low beam, I used to have that fuse blown out on me a few times so I put a 20 amps and never have a problem in last 8 years.Hope this helps...
