I have no highbeams on my car, I have checked both the relay and the fuse under the hood, when i flip my lights from low to high-beam the foglights turn off and the lowbeams stay on, but neither of the highbeam bulbs will come on, i've tried everything I can think of so I need some suggestions on what the problem might be.


P.S. they are the stock headlights not aftermarket!!!
 
My car had the same problem a 90 laser with the pop up lights. Except my brights were stuck on the whole time. When you click for the brights to come on all lights go off but the parking lights. Problem turned out to be in my switch on the steering colum . And my plugs for the headlight were corroded and needing cleaning . Check your switch with a voltmeter and see if you cant track the problem down good luck :thumb:
 
Ill check that tomorrow, dont think its the switch though, if it was the foglights wouldn't go off, b/c im pretty sure they will only go off when power reaches the HighBeam Relay, someone correct me if im wrong. thanks for the input.
 
I feel like and idiot, but then again not really because I have never had this happen before, both of my highbeam bulbs blew at the same time. so problem is fixed!!!
