i just got a deal on a 99 ram but the headlights are not working. so far i have replaced the switch, the turning signal switch. the fuses and relays are good. but no headlights. all other lights are working fine. i am getting about 5 volts to the plug but the lights do not light. any ideas?

 

did u replace the bulbs ? stuipid question.

 

how about the ground wire or the headlight housing sometimes the wire will short and melt the housing and you wont have headlight

 

check the wiring as well.. are the sockets good and clean?

 

i had a similar lighting problem, and it all turned out to be 1 ground wire

 

Thanks folks

the bulbs are new.
the plugs have just been replaced.
I cut the ground from the plug and ground it independly from the rest but still no change. Is there others I should check? I am getting voltage at the plug but only around 5 volts.

Thanks
