  • Passenger low beam (no light)

    Low beam went out on pass. side. I replaced the headlight...nothing, high beam on pass. side will not work either. The motors still work great and the driver's side headlights both light up great.
    I checked the connector 3 times and cleaned out all the corrosion i could till I saw shiny metal.

    Both LB and HB headlights are plugged in.

    I'm starting to think maybe a wire is damaged somewhere along the line. (please god no)

    if you can check the setup/wire for voltage with a multimeter [img]smile.gif[/img] that will help you find out if voltage is getting to the plug/bulb

        check your grounds too.
        they can really mess stuff up.

          Ok, found a multimeter at work.
          Pass side :11.9 volts
          driver side:12.1 volts
          I put a working headlight on the pass side and still nothing. I'll check the grounds, if that ain't it I'll prolly cut the connectors off and splice the wires together.

            I checked the grounds and its the metal prongs inside the connector for the headlight motor. Common corrosion but how do I clean the post? The post looks black like it was burned.
