**zerolock** · December 21st, 2008 10:41 AM

Mga sir patulong naman po kung ano problema ng headlights ko. last night po kasi ayaw mag work yung high beam ko, pero yung low beam meron naman, likewise yung dash light tail lights ay ok naman. nag hazard lights na lang ako on the way home kahit di ko makita ang daan upto 40 kph lang ang takbo ko. then when i run for almost 8 kms. na bigla na lang gumana yung high beam ko. what seems to be the problem po?

check your column switch baka sooted or blacken-out na yung "high" contacts..

sigurado yan, mataas wattage ng headlight bulbs mo noh? above 60/55w noh? 100/90W nga tutunawin na ang terminal,e...

been there done that. the worst case is papalitan mo ang column switch mo... wag surplus kasi most likely RHD configured yun!

china/taiwan will do. kung gusto mo OEM/original, pay the hefty price.

check mo yung sockets baka loose.

yes bunot suksok lang pati sa mga dugtungan. IMO loose connections lang yan...sana. unless malapit na humingi ng kapalit ang mismong bulb.

loose contacts yan kasi both left and right yata e. pag sa sockets e di isa lang sana ang patay.

tanong lang, why do you have to drive with high beams on??? mamya nakasalubong ka ng galit sa high beam mabaril ka pa nyan. low beam lang lagi para di silaw ang kasalubong mo at yung car sa harap.

that happened to me recently. went to rey's. we found one of the fuse sockets ay natunaw. had it replaced for less than 500.

poor contacts malamang....you need to remove the steering column cover...then use a very fine sandpaper on the contacts or try to check for any loose screws in your headlight switch.....

Thanks mga sir sa mga inputs laking tulong po at nagawa na yung problema. The problem pala ay yung Relay nya e nag LOOSE kaya walang HEADLIGHT at HIGHBEAM. sya ngapala mga sir HEADLIGHT at HIGHBEAM po pala ang di nagwork. Fog Light, Dash Light at Tail Light po ang merong ilaw nung night n yon. again Thanks
