tpnorth Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Alright well im stumped now. I got my car up and running and now all of the sudden my headlights wont work and i took her around the block the other day and i noticed two dash lights were on my ebrake and my door lights wont go out.I went around with a test light and my hanes manual and tested everything and the only thing that didnt seem to get power was the lights like everything else has power but its not getting all the way to the headlights?? Any ideas what i should look for?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philfree Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Hi first thing i would look at is check all the fuses and fusible links check the plugs and earths for the headlights. Have you checked the switches for the doors they can play up with bad contacts etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpnorth Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 checked all the fuses and fusible links already all seem good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrism Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Is there power at the head lights.If so, you have a bad ground. Any other items not working on the car.Ex. Wipers, dome light, turn signals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpnorth Posted November 6, 2008 Author Share Posted November 6, 2008 No power at the actual lights all other lights work i think it maybe the arm im pulling it apart to see tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roger.svoboda Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Means your expansion tank is low on coolant OR switch went bad that senses level OR someone pulled the wires off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyuri Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Means your expansion tank is low on coolant OR switch went bad that senses level OR someone pulled the wires off. Just as a note, the float for the switch can get stuck if it gets too low, sometimes. Happened to me - I topped up the overflow and the light was still on - so I smacked the bottle and that fixed it. If that's the problem yours may not be that simple, but it's pretty easy to check while you're topping up anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
