Re: No headlights??

ok, not trying to be a jerk here but the bulbs are good right? Did you put a meter across the plug to see if there's voltage at the connector?

Re: No headlights??

It might be the headlight switch......which includes the circuit breaker (self resetting) for the headlights.
My headlights started to blink a bit when I turned them on....very intermittent.......
Also, my headlight switch was warm after running the headlights.....NOT NORMAL.
I replaced the headlight switch.....pictures of the process are posted (I did it at the same time as I replaced my "multifunction" switch due to the right turn signal getting flakey).
After I replaced the headlight switch......no more blinky and no more warm switch.
