I have a 96 with a 3.8 and just all of a sudden my low beams will not turn on. I have highs but no lows. I pulled the plug and hit it with a meter, I got juice to the plugs but no lights. I dont think they would both just go out, would they?

Please help.

It's possible. If you have proven power and ground are getting to the lamps, what else could it be?

Legendary Nos

Thanks for the reply. i am going to get new headlights tomorrow and we will see. I hope. lol

I had the same thing happen once. Both low beams blew at the same time.

Legendary Nos

I dont believe it. It worked. Thanks for the help

shoebox

What, there was some doubt? You are not the first to have this happen.

Legendary Nos

I just had never seen that. I pulled in the house went inside came out and No lights..lol I thought it was the switch at first going bad, but I tested the plugs and got juice. Again thanks. Oh Do you happen to know if the z28s drive shaft is a perfect match for my 3.8?

shoebox

Yes, you can replace a V6 d/s with the Z's.

Legendary Nos

is there anything I need extra or just order the new d/s and just replace?

shoebox

Why do you need to replace it. Does your V6 have the 1 piece or 2 piece shaft on it now? You can get used 1LE or LS1 aluminum driveshafts pretty cheap.
All I know is that people have replaced their V6 shafts with the LT1/LS1 shafts without issue.

Legendary Nos

yes I have the 2pc. I am looking for the 1 piece. Please let me know. I found one from a z28 for 282.00 plus shipping...I thought about a junk yard but its just to cold for that..lol

shoebox

The single shaft can replace the two piece also (I have read). $282 sounds like an awful lot. Check the classified section. You can do way better than that.

Legendary Nos

ok dumb ?. how do i get to the classified..lol

shoebox

There is a menu tree at the top of the page.

If you wanted to try out a stock steel shaft, you could peobably get one for next to nothing.

Legendary Nos

found it thanks. You have been a really big help. Now if I could just get you to drill this fiber hood for me that would be great..lol
