Hi evryone, I have a 1987 Honda Accord LX, Carb'd, Auto. Well my problem is that my left headlight ( right headlight works perfectly) will not work with the low beams, it only works when I have the high beams on. And when i goto put in a new fuse it just blows as soon as I turn the headlights on. So if anyone can point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank You.
check you headlight cables make sure there not bent or broken have you tried a different light to be sure its not that
maybe a connection wire to the headlight might be touching the body thats frying the fuse check the wiring for rips or check the socket
Short, wire is pinched.
check your bulbs. Lol yea i know noob response
nah it aint a noob response cause sometime the bulbs come only in high beam or low beam but if you have the stock ones they are sealed then you cant check them but if you have conversion then yeah and one other thing try replacing the headlight to see if its damage light sometimes can be bright and cause thisQuote:

my sedan did that... i always just had to drive with the high beams on.
lol if you have to drive with only the hi beams working. it means you need new bulbsQuote:

definitely could be a fried filament or something... my accord both headlamps only the highs came on.i repaced the bulbs and presto......could have been that they hadn't been changed in so long..
