Headlights Low Beam stopped working.....
 
Yesterday I turned my headlights on and they came on for like half a second and then poof they were off. I figured a fuse... So I checked and I think i looked at the right fuse and it was good. The high beams work still, and Today I looked more at it. When I turn the lights on I can hear the relay click but no headlights come on. So I'm sure the fuse is good and the relay is good... Do you think its burned out wire or something? I doubt its the switch because the relay switches, but not positive. Thanks for the help.

get new headlights and see if that fixes the problem

A check with a multimeter will confirm if it's the bulbs. Do this before spending any money. Both bulbs failing together is unusual, but I know it can happen because it's happened to me.

It could also be a bad headlight switch. Remove the instrument cluster and unplug the switch. Jumper the red/white and black wires and the low beams should come on. If they do it's the switch, if they don't it's probably the bulbs.
