    Hi everyone,

    Sorry if I'm asking a question that's been answered too many times...I wasn't sure what search terms to use to look for answers in the archives, so I'm taking a chance and just asking:

    I've got an 05 and currently the low beams aren't working on either side, the high beams are working on both.

    Here's the history of what I've tried...

    The problem started on just the passenger's side so I replaced the bulb, but that didn't solve the problem. Then, a few months later, the same thing started happening in the driver's side headlight. I then checked the fuses (the ones the diagram in the lid of the fuse box refers to as "head lo" the fuses seemed fine and putting new ones in didn't change anything. Next I replaced the relay that that same diagram labels "head." That didn't solve the problem.

    Now what?

    Thanks in advance...

    Search for a thread titled “Low beam out, high beam good”. Looks like a similar issue.
