another wiring problem... help please
so i get in my car today and i turned on the headlights and realized that my headlights weren't turning on and my fog lights won't turn on either, my parking lights turn on and my brights will still turn on.
i did check the fuses and they are fine..
does this sound like a ground or something in the switch.
if it does sound like a ground, where is the ground located..
how often do the switches go bad on a 2gn?

The headlight switches in our cars are notorious for going bad. In fact, it sounds exactly like what happened to Mike (03sxt) among other people.Omgitslizzzzz wrote:so i get in my car today and i turned on the headlights and realized that my headlights weren't turning on and my fog lights won't turn on either, my parking lights turn on and my brights will still turn on.

The dealer can order you a new switch as well as a wiring kit to replace any wires that burned out when the switch went bad...

I would still recommend checking the switch and the harness, just to be sure, good luck.
