High beams will not work on my Caravanjberenyi 02-19-2004, 07:39 PM In January a gentleman on this forum helped me fix my low beam problem. Apparently I had a ground wire problem and had to bridge the wire between the steering wheel and the relay in the engine compartment. The problem was solved. Here it is a month later and the low beams still function properly but now the high beams are completely out. Even the high beam indicator on the dash does not light. Can someone help me trouble shoot this? BTW, I checked the high beam relay and it is working. I checked it by swapping with another position. gforster 02-19-2004, 08:50 PM Ok I got it. This time your gonna take off the steering column shroud and at the dimmer switch try grounding the White/Light Green wire. I betchya the lights wont come on. Now go under the power distribution center and find the White/Light green wire there and ground it. Betchya the high beams come on. If they do you know what you have to do - bypass that badboy with another wire and you should be in business again. Let me know how this works for you. I hope I helped, Geoff Forster jberenyi 02-20-2004, 07:56 AM Thanks Geoff. I will try it tomorrow morning. It couldn't have been better timing. My safety inspection is due by the end of the month.

I bridged the wire and in about 15 minutes the job was complete and my high beams were functioning. I want to personally thank you for helping me again. I don't know what I would have done without your help (except shell out the green backs at the dealership). Now I can get the safety inspection done this week and re-register the van. Thanks Geoff. I will try it tomorrow morning. It couldn't have been better timing. My safety inspection is due by the end of the month. John vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
