There was a recall on 01s and early 02s for low beams missing. Never heard of it on 03s.

The bulbs are supplied voltage on the common terminal and is provided ground (either high or low beam) by way of the headlight switch.

Re: Low beams don't work

Maybe there is something wrong with your ground or might be your wirings. Try to check the connection that connects the bulbs, maybe it was there.

Maybe try to ohm out the dimmer switch.. or simply replace it.. Or it could be a short to ground.. look up the wiring scematics and follow the wiring intill u get the short..
