The other current thread on LED headlights got me looking again.
Thoughts on functionality and fitment of these ones? https://www.amazon.ca/Approved-Headlights-W...s/dp/B07L5BNYKK My understanding is that it's the housing depth that can cause an issue with the compatibility. |

When I test fit the lights yesterday, I had both high and low beams working. Now that I've actually installed them, I've lost the low beam on the passenger side. Turns out that I don't have power to the low beam at the headlight connector. Seems weird considering I had power there yesterday -- makes me think fuse. Are the headlights fused independently? Anywhere else I should be looking?

Anywhere else I should be looking? Test them independently off the vehicle. We went through quite a few manufacturers before we started selling the ones we do on our site. It's quite common for the power supplies on these to fail. That has always been the weak link we have found. |
