both low beam bulbs just went out.
 
both poped at the same time. coincidence?

maybe you went over some sort of bump that jostled them?

fuse? switch?

Re: fuse? switch?
 
I just took out both bulbs and they are indeed craped out. It's weird that they choose to go dead at the same time when I turn on the head lemps last night. Hope it's not some strange elec prob. Those are the original oe bulbs came with the car(MY99) btw.

The switch did it.

Have you manhandled the bulbs lately?

pipebender 09-01-2004 06:06 AM

really? should I replce the switch too?
 
or just put on new bulbs and see what happens?

pipebender 09-01-2004 06:07 AM

nope
 
ganna go grabs some new H7s and see what happens

good idea
 
don't touch the glass on the bulbs when installing it!

i may be overly anal, but i assume nothing with bulbs...
 
when installing any bulb, brand new or not, I ALWAYS use rubbing alcohol 70% to clean off any residual crappage. your boy, Stalin could have touched all over those bulbs at the philips factory and we'd never know ;)
