Headlights are the devil...
So yeah, I'm back again, this time going a little crazy...
To begin, I know all of this could be solved by getting the H4 conversion, but for now...
So we figured out that the reason the headlights themselves don't go up and down is because it COULD possibly be switch related. Because the motors work, the relays are all ok, and the wiring seems be be in tact.
The reason I think it could be a switch or something is:
My headlights keep blowing when I use my highbeams. Now, the fuses are all ok, but everytime I go to flick my highbeams or whatever, they blow my lights out.
Now, when I don't use my highbeams my lights last forever... When they blow, it smells like eggs. lol. I don't know if that has to do with anything but I thought I'd throw it in there. Cause nobody likes rotten eggs. :S
Anyway, any ideas how the switches could be related to my headlights blowing/not putting my headlights down?
Thanks guys for your patience lol. And help!

Well, after like 8 different sets of lenses blowing out in two days. I ended up noticing that my F.O.G. fuse by my clutch was sliding out a little. So I pushed it in. Usually when one light goes out, I can flick the highbeams a couple times and the other blows out. But after I pushed the fuse back in it wouldn't blow the other one... I dunno if that has ANYTHING to do with the headlights, but so far so good? >_<
