I am looking for some assistance in tracking down missing power to my driver's side high beam. Front head lights and rear lights all work find except for when I switch to high beams. The hi-beam on the drivers side goes out. everything else stays operating as normal. I know it is not a bad bulb, as I have already tested to see if I have fully functioning high and low beam bulbs. Any suggestions on where to start to see why I am getting power to the bulb on low, but not on high?
Thanks in advance. |

Check that fuse#1 is good that's the high beam fuse.

Hi Lo Left Right. 4 fuses for the headlights. If the fuse is good clean the contacts.
Also switching the Hi & Lo feed wires off the relay (white & yellow) will tell you if the bulb is bad. |
