What year is this? I believe there's a relay that could be faulty.

Ok...best I can tell, not quite sure looking at this ridiculous diagram, power runs from the main light switch to the multi function switch to the I/P fuse panel on numbers 4 and 8, 4 for the left headlight and 8 for the right. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Ok well there you go, john knows better than I do, my setup is different ('94). If you have a voltmeter you could follow the wires and check them for power, but that can be tricky.

Theres only 2 things that can kill both low beams, a bad LOM/lamps out module or a bad dimmer/multifunction switch like john mentioned

If your truck doesnt have the lamps out warning system, check the multifunction switch with your ohm meter.
