Headlight Wizards Help Needed
My headlights will not come on (both low and high beam) and the turns signal lights on the dash blink at a higher rate then fade completely. Other lights like hazards, reverse, breaks, interior, glove and gauges work just fine.
When the car is running and I pull on the headlight knob to turn on the headlights, the BLUE light indicating highlights on the gauge come on in both the high and low beam light position . . . .but no headlights. * Checked and replaced healdight fuse. * Starter switch is new. Has my turn signal assembly falied and causing this? Help needed as I am in the DARK.

mine did this and it turned out to be the headlight switch at the stalk /turn signal. Are you running higher than recommend wattage headlight bulbs?

Install relays even if headlights are stock. Common known problem.
