Angry projector headlight problem...

hey, the high beams on my projectors stopped working the other day, and im wondering if it could be the fuse, since both bulbs dont go out at the same time usually. Is this frequent on projectors? Thanks...

Oh yeah, and the high beams are regular halogens, the projector low beams are piaa's

Nope, it's not a fuse. It's a lose connection. This was the second reason I took my anger out on them with a bat

You need to take it apart and check all connections and reassemble. I just lived with the no high beams thing. The visibility was such an improvement for low beams that high beams did little if anything.

Hey, did you even check the fuses? How do you know it's not the fuses without checking them? The low beams use an individual fuse and the high beams use a seperate individual fuse (placed side by side). I'm just asking because my low beams kept going out and it was because my fuses were not big enough.

well see thats what i thought, i go to school up in bellingham, and the cars in bremerton, so i cant really go check on it, but i can have my friend look into it...

The guy that sold me the car said that if the headlights ever went out, it was a fuse, and most likely not the bulbs...but i was just posting this to see if that was a common problem.

THANKS

I didn't think it was the fuse because if you've installed everything right and your using the right fuses that are rated for the system, why are they burning out? They shouldn't. And if they are, you got a whole other problem.
