civic light

hey hows it going. im having a prob with my head lights on my 95 civic. the lights do not work. but somehow when i hit the highs they do work. but for some reason the lows or normal do not work at all. what can it be any help. :)

Low beam element is burnt, replace both bulbs.
Do not touch the glass part on the new bulbs.

the bulbs i just got brand new. what is the Low beam element. also would it be a fuse or something else ? :eek7:

New bulbs can be bad, highly unlikely - you may have got the wrong bulbs. Low beam element / high beam element are the things inside that produce light. When there is only a single headlight that serves as both high/low beam, there are actually two bulbs inside one - 2 elements. Similar to a brake / tail light, light is dim when tail lights are on, light brightens when brakes applied due to the 2 elements. If it were a fuse then the lights would not function at all.

The correct bulb # is 9003

hey cool thx for all help thx alot. it was a bad fuse from inside :screwy:
