| Description of the problem | While driving home last night going down a country road doing 50 mph, my low beams went complete out and i almost wrecked my van. Once i got stopped and my heart returned to beating normal i found that only the high beams worked. I have since changed the relays around in the pms/fuse box under the hood, and the low beams still don't work. I had changed out both headlamps less then a year ago, so i am sure that the problem is not that both low beams went out on the lamps at the same time. I have read online that this problem has happened to many others owning this vehicle. This vehicle was purchased new from the dealer in july of 2005. |
