Hey Everyone, So recently my headlights starting acting up. If i turn them on to low beam both the pass side lights come on super dim and driver side both come on also but with normal brightness. When i flip it on brights the passenger side goes completely off and driver side works fine. i cant help to think this is a ground issue, but i have checked the grounds on the radiator support and they are fine. What could be the problem! Also the fuses looked fine under the hood

Might sound dumb but try disconnecting/reconnecting both sides headlights, I was having the same problem and everything checked out, wiggled the connections around a little bit and haven't had a problem since.

Bad connection, check the wire/connection going to your lamps, if no improvment check the big connector under the headlight unit.

Thanks for the replies guys. I have messed with both of those connections you all mentioned with no luck!

Look in the connectors. Is there any corrosion? That could be creating a short.

Thanks guys. Went back and unplugged the main connector for that side and did notice some corrosion and cleandd it up some. All is good now!

I have that same problem too so I searched and searched for a solution and found the driver side main plug a little green. I cleaned it all up and now I have absolutly nothing on the drivers side. I got the light to come on once and I thought all was good but I noticed that it didnt pop up. so Now i'm trying to figure out why it wont pop up. In that process I lost the driver side light all together. no low beam, no high, no motor. I am thinking the headlight module took a crap but Idk. I dont want to spend a ton of money on a new module just to find out it wasnt it.
I'm stumped!

You probably just need to get in there more and clean better. The thing is what once you unplug the connector, the genie is out of the bottle. The wires that did work were making contact over a very small bare sliver of metal. If you don't get all that corrosion off and the contacts re-connect off that tiny sliver, electricity won't flow well.

Try going to a 0 gauge big 3 kit upgrade

How did you clean three corrosion?

The 5 pin weather pack connectors for the lights and headlight motor are notoriously crap. I just replaced the connectors all together with new ones.

Also for the other guy, if by chance your headlight module is bad, you can get a good used one from Hawks third gen parts for $50. The are a sponsor I think. They have a web site and an ebay store too.

What did you do to clean it up? I need to do this also.
