Default Headlights dont work?

Alright 954 ers....Fuse is fine. High beams work. But low beams do not function? Almost 40K on her and this is the 1st issue I have had with her. Any suggestions?

All 3? All bulbs work on high beam. What are the odds that all of the low beams fried at the same time? Im going to start with the switch and backtrack.

Are you positive all three were actually working? You may have been down to the last one, sometimes it's easier to check the simplest things first.

An overcharging charging system can fry all of them at the same time. If they are all blown, def check the voltage.

Does your dash and tail light up?

All 3?

Your middle is the lo, the outside bulbs are your hi. They're not hi-lo bulbs.

I had the wiring in my lo beam go bad, and I ran speaker wire to the connector from the fuse and it fixed it.

Thanks Boys for all the love! Opened up the light switch and I think I found a cure for ebola in there! Cleaned it up. Had a wire decide to let go on the center bulb as well. No body panels pulled in search of relays....Multiple Beers were harmed in this exploratory process. Gods speed my adult beverage friends.
