98 Windstar - Headlights not working help!!

Did they go out all-of-the-sudden or did you have problems beforehand such as them only working on the bright setting?

for awhile the left headlight was dim and if i played around with the wire it would work but it hasn't. the last time we were in it the lights were still working and the one night he went to use my car he turned them on and it didn't work. now the highbeam light goes on when we turn on the headlights. what could it be?

If only the high beams come on, one of the headlights is out. You always want to replace them in pairs though. Replace both bulbs and that should fix the problem.

the highbeams don't even light up. just light where the controls are lights up when i turn the light switch on. the headlamps aren't working at all

l dont know if this will help you but my aerostar had daytime running lights and the module that controled them went goofy.All we did was bypass that module and my lights worked with the manual on/off control on my dash..

Well, if both headlights don't work at all, something has gone bad before the actuall lights. If it worked before, you could try it again. It doesn't sound like the switch on the steering column is bad because the dash indicates high beams.

hmmm im not sure because i dont have drl lights

I'm not familiar with the particular vehicle, but something is preventive voltage from getting to the headlights.

I was playing around with the lights yesterday and I got it. It was the right headlight, I pushed in on the part where it connects to the light and bada bing! I guess it was lose? I just wanted to let everyone know I solved the problem!!
