Exclamation Headlight Trouble S5 NA *Searched*

Before I start...Id like to say that Ive searched for hours and some post were outdated or they never posted a fix.


A few nights ago, I HAD headlights (Low and High). I still have rear lights, dash lights and turn signals. No burn marks on the switch or harness. When I hit the high beam switch, I can hear the relay click, but nothing happens. I don't think its the actual lamps tho.

If the switch is bad, I wouldn't have break lights right? Is there another relay in the engine bay I can switch out to see if its the relay?

Thanks Guys

You might want start by checking the 30A Head fuse in the main fuse box next to the battery. That's the main power supply circuit for your headlights. If the fuse is okay, than I would next check the headlight relay. I believe it's located on the driver's side inner fender at front of the shock tower.
