    Default Headlight problem

    I rerouted all the wires up into the fender and now the passenger side low beam goes off when i hit the high beams. it works on low and the driver's side stays on.What is going on?

    i had this happen too. it ended up being something in the high beam low beam switch.but it might just be a lose wire that shorts when the high beam draws current. i would recheck that everything is plug in good and make sure the connection on the headlights isnt dirty

    i also put in a new turn/multi switch too.I don't know if it did this before.I'll pull the plugs and see if that helps.
