When I turn on my headlights I have to keep them on bright. If I switch them over to low beam, they cut off. My dash lights work but my beams cut off. What could be the cause??? Is it an easy fix, a fuse or something like that? I am not very car savy and I just graduated college. So I don't want spend alot of money if I don't have to.


Thank you.

Hi there.

I would be checking the globes, fuses and the low beam relay first, start here.
