No Low beam lights. Help
I am the proud new owner a 99 F350 crew V10. My first new truck in a long time. I'm having trouble with the lights. When the switch is off Head lights on. When turned to park lights head lights and park lights on. When turned to lights, Park lights on no low beam but have high beams. I put in new bulb and the same thing. Does any one know where the dimmer switch relay is? Next thing is
Washed the dust off motor and took for a drive. the batt. light came on and the volt. gage is still showing in the half way mark.I think it is the Alt. but wanted to check with others.
Thanks for any help.
And it just turned the 204,000 mark.

I don't think so!!! unless you take the coils out you'll never know. Do you know what happens when aluminum and metal corrode together because of water. How about remove your plugs and take the threads with it...Not fun. I won't do it..

Well this is what I found. First off it had some 85/100W bulbs in it one had came out and melted down the down the back of the reflector untill it hit frame work. With those High watt bulbs in it it fried the low beam part of the multifunction switch. After a new switch and some lower watt bulbs all is well now.
