help! bulbs are out!
Last night I was going to go pick up my girl from work and my head lights would not work. I have a set of super white bulbs. I've had them for a about 9 months and there not working anymore. Its only the low beams. The high beams work fine, but the lows are out. Could it be a wiring problem or are my low beams burned out?
It's a good chance they are burned out. I have gone through many sets of aftermarket bulbs claiming to be super white or ultra white and no matter what brand you buy they all seem to burn out within a year.
I wish I was asian

did u take them out and look at them? thats the first thing u can do to determine whats the problem.
i would think that they're burned out or u fried ur wire harness.

Anyway, H4 = double filament. Meaning even if you burn ur low beams, your high beams still work because they are another filament. Ok bad wording, but yea..
Just replace your bulbs with PIAA's or MTEC's

ok I put my stock head light bulbs back in and the low beams still do not work! I checked all of the fuses and they look all ok. But I don't know if the big fuses for the head lights are out or not. What do I do now? Is it a wiring problem or a fuse problem?
