did the reverse lights stop the same time the low beams stopped working? if not, most likely the back up switch is faulty for the reverse lights and the headlamp relay is bad for the low beams. first to check is the fuses though.

where are the fuses for the lights (headlights and reverse)?

where is the relay switch for the headlights?

where is the backup switch for the reverse lights?

thank you

fuse #2 (30 amp) labeled HEAD in the underhood fuse block. also fuse #3 (80 amp) labeled MAIN in the underhood fuse block if 1.8L equipped. headlamp relay is behind left side of the instrument panel. back up switch is on the transaxle.
