Good evening, I have a 2007 97x Saab. My question is that all my lights come on except for my front headlights. My husband changed the relay but that not it. This morning when I was getting ready for work. My truck wouldnt start. So he charge my battery and it started but, once again all the light came on except for my front headlights.

Do you have parking lights/dash interior lighting, just no low beam head lamps, are they traditional halogen or HID?

A multi meter really is needed to do further testing. The connectors for the low beams need to be checked for voltage ( it doesn't need to be fancy one can start out with a 20.00 one from a local walmart, as long as it can read 12V that's what your looking for. Also you need to check for voltage at the switch on the dash, .

As a side note did you check the daytime running light relay? If I'm looking at the diagram correctly your low beams are a always on exterior light ( meaning no matter what position the switch is in there always on.
