Low beam not working, potentially head light switch?


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

Just wanted some input on some problems im having with my 2005 facelift sportivo.

Currently my low beams are not working. My parkers and my fog lights are working fine. My high beam works fine at the moment too but only when i press it. However my high beam doesnt work when i put it in automatic high beam. Whenever i press the high beam, my low beam lights will turn on.

Power seems to be going into my low beam lights when i press the high beam. Whenever i turn my low beam lights on no power is going to them. I checked it on a volt meter.

I have checked the fuses they seem to be all fine.

Has this problem happened to anyone before? I have done some research it seems to be my head light switch? do you guys think thats the problem?

Globes are fine. They are new and they do work only when high beam is pressed.

How much was it to replace indicator switch?

Indicator switch meaning the whole indicator stalk??

Did he get that from the wreckers?

He paid something like $120 for the fog lamp version from sunshine toyota wreckers.

$70 something for the non foglamp version.

We couldn't find any relays and according to toydiy the switch/indicator stalk was the relay.

After replacing the stalk the headlights returned to normal operation.

Not sure if its a common issues as we couldn't find anything on it, bizarre lol

he drove around with no low beams for 2 months...

Just an update of my status. It was the switch that was the problem. It wasnt making contact when low beam was being switched on. So sprayed it with some lubricant and chucked it back in and the lights are working fine now. :)! Thanks for the input guys
