Outside lighting issues PLEASE HELP!!!
Outside lighting issues PLEASE HELP!!!
2007 TL-S
1) low and high beams dont switch on, DRLs do work as well as all side markers. When I switch the lights to on they make a buzzing sound for 2 seconds and stop but never come on.
Note: when switch to on, Fogs lights light-up when I turn on low beams...but no light from lows....or highs....
2) Left headlight light turning blinker wont stay on during parking lights or when the light switch it turned on, light does flash when I signal.
3)Right head light turn blinker stays on but wont blink!!!!! wtf...
Please help or offer suggestions. I drive to work every morning at 0500(
) and home near sunset, with these light issues its obviously unexceptionably dangerous.

sounds simple to me.
1. your ignitor is dislocated from your bulb, the BUZZ is what sound the ballast makes when a bulb isnt connected. this would account for your low and high beam not working since they are from the same source.
2. parking light and turn signal is 1 bulb, with 2 filaments, sounds like one of the filaments is dead. replace bulb, its size 1157.
3. same as #2 but its the opposite filament dead. replace bulb, size 1157.
go to autozone buy a pair of 1157 bulbs for couple dollars, and check the ignitor connection to the bulbs, its very easy once you take out the headlight.

Awesome will try that out today!
And after further review "1. your ignitor is dislocated from your bulb, the BUZZ is what sound the ballast makes when a bulb isnt connected. this would account for your low and high beam not working since they are from the same source."
I checked lastnight, mother$%#@! sold me a car with no bulbs. I knew the lights were out but I didnt know they were "OUT" of the car. *facepalm*

well to be fair, whether the bulbs are dead or no bulbs is the same thing, you'd have to buy a new set anyways.
but yeah that sucks, a pair of D2S bulbs isnt too expensive though so dont worry
