Re: Headlights acting up.... Please help

Just get a meter and and check the voltage at the head light plug.

Black = Ground
Tan = Low
Green = High

Then you'll know if its the bulbs or electrical wiring.

I tested the voltage at the headlight plug and it was fine. Looks like the headlights are burn out. Thanks for the info everyone.
