I cant seem to get my brights to work. THe switch seems to be ok, FTP works fine. The bulbs are both brand new. What could this be??
Any help is greatly appreciated.

 

How do you know the switch is ok?

 

sounds like the switch to me. the dimmer switch.

 

If the blue indicator light in the instrument panel toggles on & off, the switch & hold circuit are working.
Next check:
wiring
connectors
relays
lamps

 

The blue light on the dash doesnt come on and for that matter, neither do the turn indicator lights on the dash. I figured that because the FTP is functional that the switch must be in working order.Could a bad switch also cause the interior turn signal lights to not work even though the turn signals all function perfectly on the exterior of the car??

 

dimmer relay is bad or the hi/lo switch in the turn signal switch is bad

 

Thnxs for the replies everyone! Are the switches available through mazda?

I have several types of headlight switches for the FC available right now. including the new show ones, that allow you to turn on the headlights without raising them, and then raise them using the cleaner switch instead of them always coming up.

 

haha, this thread cracks me up.

BTW- Mark, I have a bunch of switches and etc I still intend to send to you.
Still buying them and/or giving credit?

( I need switches rebuilt too. haha)
