Bought two new headlight assemblys off of Amozon, installed them, replaced light blubs, low beam isn't very bright. High beam indicator works on high and dims alittle but doesn't go completely out on low beam. Replaced turn signal and headlight switch today, no difference. Checked head light plug with volt meter, 3 prongs were 12 volt on hight beam on low beam one prong goes to 6 volt and the other two stay at 12 volts.
SOURCE: Left low beam is dim
The mechanic didn't hook up the ground wire. The system is using the other light as it's ground and when this happens it causes the other light to go out.
Check the ground wires
SOURCE: Right side headlight (low beam) dead
clearly volts without amps. pinch wire bad socket or multifunction switch under cover on steering column.
SOURCE: one headlight brighter than other on low beam
This is caused by a dirty/corroded headlight ground to the sheet metal of the car, the ground is usually near the headlight
SOURCE: i have no high beam headlights just low beam with
Check Hi beam bulbs they may both be burnt out, and check both fuse boxes. Headlights are offen on separate fuses Left/right so you don't end up with no lights at all
SOURCE: High beam headlights quit working. Bulbs are OK.
When you checked the bulb plug and got 12 volts, did you meter ground some where else on the car? If so, you might check ground also at the plug.
