The lights on my vehicle do not work, except for the left headlamp, while the veh. is in park or is engaged.
They work when I use my fob to lock and unlock the veh.
The following light turn on:
signal lights; the brake lights; side indicator lights; interior lights; high beams.

The Right Headlight does not. I have not changed or attempted to change this yet.

Hi SailnSandi,

Thank you for the donation.

Is vehicle equipped with Daytime Running Lights ?
When fob is used, only the clearance lights should work and not the headlights.

Check if the head light bulb is blown. High and low beams uses separate circuit in the bulb. When handling halogen bulbs, take care not to touch the bulb glass portion.
