Low beam not working-weird problem

I upgraded by headlights to Xenon Depot's LED's several years ago. Had one low beam go bad and they replaced it without any fuss - good experience.

Fast forward 1 year - same thing occurs, same headlamp (driver's side). They send a new LED and driver. Replaced both - still not working. Tried taking known good light and driver from opposite side of vehicle. Still not working.

I checked both 10A low beam fuses - 0 ohms, not blown. BUT, only the passenger side fuse ever sees 12 volts. Pulled the fuse for the driver's side low beam, and no voltage in the fuse socket. Found the low beam headlamp relay and swapped it with another identical relay - still no light.

Anyone else experience something like this? This is a relatively new vehicle so I wouldn't think a wire would open up in a harness somewhere between the battery and fuse box, but I guess its possible...

Sounds like you have done all you can without a wiring diagram. If you don't have power in the fuse block on the supply side of that fuse, I would start there and work back with a drawing for your vehicle model and year.

There are drawings as part of the manuals Nashman posted several years ago. Link should still be in the stickies. They are for a 2011 I think, so may not be correct for your vehicle.

Did you find a solution to this problem? I'm also dealing with something similar with the same aftermarket DRL setup. For me, it is the passenger side that won't turn on.

I’m having the same exact issue with mine and same exact side. Did you figure out what was causing it?
