Lexus RX 2010-15 :: High Beams Fail To Turn On But Work When Flashed

Basically, my high beams work when flashed (pulling the lever), but they don't work when I want to leave them on (push the lever). It's obvious that it's not the bulbs since they work when flashing. I'd really like to avoid taking it to the dealership since the Lexus dealerships in my area are notorious for overcharging their customers and not doing a good job.

Touareg :: Xenons Flashing When High Beams Are Turned On?

I experienced abnormal behaviour of the xenons (I think).I thought that when all lights were off (no DRL's or what so ever), and I flash the high beams (pull the left lever towards me and release) that I'd see the halogens only and no xenons, but apparently the xenons are flashing as well.

I know there's a mechanism in front of the xenon bulbs that covers the normal xenon beam partly for the normal lights, and gives you the full beam when high beams are on (the thing called "Bi-Xenon").
But I thought the xenons are not supposed to come on just for flashing if the normal lights are not already on, because the lighting of a xenon bulb is not fast enough.

Touareg :: 2004 V6 - How To Change Headlamp Bulbs (High And Low Beams)

I know the instructions are somewhere, but I am having trouble figuring out how to change the headlamp bulbs (high & low beams) on the easy side-driver side. Do I need to loosen the headlamp assembly or can I just go into the headlamp assembly without removing it?

Ford 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: Keep Getting Flashed With Factory Low Beams On

2015 F350 King Ranch. I am constantly getting flashed when my low beams are on. They are pretty impressive for factory headlamps but the high beams leave much to be desired. They pretty much suck.

376 mile trip tonight, 200 miles of it in the dark. I was flashed six times. I drive this trip twice a week, every week, almost always in the dark (Alaska). I'm usually flashed by on coming traffic a similar number of times each trip. The trip is usually made late at night so there is little traffic... so getting flashed 5-7 times could often mean 50% of the traffic.

Happens whether the truck is empty or loaded. Only people who don't flash me are semi trucks but cars, trucks, etc do.

Lights appear to be aimed fine and I haven't touched them since I got the truck new back in June. I find myself running the high beams, which provide less visibility than the lows, so on coming traffic can actually see me switch the high beams off in an effort to avoid getting flashed. Nope... they still flash me.

Ford 7.3L Power Stroke (1999-2003) :: High Beams Only And No Low Beams After Installing New Headlight Bulbs

I have checked fuse 46 and 47, and installed new headlight bulbs. I have high beams, but no low beams. I have searched this topic but no one has the same prob it seems. My headlight switch has broken. Could it be the headlight switch?

In my manual, it says the 2002 has a fuse panel behind the glove box. I took glove box out but it doesn't look like a fuse panel.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Low Beams Went Out / High Beams Functional

After spending weeks ordering parts and doing research on this issue all my attempts have not solved the issue. To reiterate the issue, the high beams work, and the low beams do not. Thus far I have attempted the following without the desired result-

1. Changed the headlights out just in case both bulbs burnt at once.

2. Changed the blinker stalk in hopes of a faulty switch.

3. Changed the headlight switch to a brand new OEM Euro style switch.

4. Checked all fuses (did this first actually).

Accent RB (2012+) :: Low Beams Stay On With High Beams

The other night on my way home, I flipped on the high beams and the low beams didn't shut off. Flash to pass still works, and pushing in on the end of the stem turns the low beams off as well.

Having the column switch apart, is it possible this could be fixed without having to pull the steering wheel? Or, am I better off just spending the hundred dollars of so and putting in a new part?

Touareg :: Check Engine Light Flashed Then Stay Lit?

Check engine light flashed for a very brief period, car ran very rough, and then check engine light (exhaust system malfunction) stayed lit. Took to dealer this AM and service advisor asked that I bring it back on Monday morning (loaner promised) but in the meantime, I could continue driving it unless the engine light started flashing. Car is now running okay, but last night it seemed to be running on only 6 or 7 cylinders. Only 93 or 94 octane gas is used and I've owned enough German cars to know how the gas cap should be tightened. Seemed like an oxygen sensor malfunction last night but now I'm not certain.

Chevrolet - Equinox :: 2006 - Low Beams Working Intermittently?

We have an 06 Equinox, and lately the low beams have been working intermittently. Also, I don't think the running lights are working either. Low beams don't work on auto or in the "on" position. The high beams do work. We took it to the dealership yesterday and they said we had a bad resistor and replaced it for $270. Tonight my wife tried to drive home after dark and no headlights. She has to take this vehicle on a business trip soon.

Touareg :: Green Light On Button Flashed But Keyfob Unlock Failed Temporarily

Went down to the garage at work to get my car and the keyfob unlock button did nothing on the treg. The green light on the button flashed, but no matter how close I was and no matter how many times I pressed the button, nothing happened.

When I opened the door with the key, the alarm went off but starting the car fixed that (I really don't know what buttons on the remote to press to stop the alarm--I've hit panic by accident in my pocket a few times and only after furiously pushing all sorts of buttons on my keyfob has the alarm deactivated... I'm never sure which one did it).

When I got home the first two times I tried to lock the treg nothing happened. Then it locked. Now it seems to work 100%. I had the range fix and my range is quite good.

Touareg :: Adjusting Low Beams?

How to step by step adjust the low beams. I looked at trying to do this and haven't got a clue. Do you need to remove the whole lighting unit or is there an adjustment screw you get to by feel, because you aren't getting in back of the light assembly from the engine compartment, maybe remove the wheel well guards? I think i'm in the market for a service manual. My motto is If it aint broke...........fix it until it is!!!!!

Touareg :: 2005 - Low Beams Too Low?

I just took my '05 Treg into the dealer to adjust the headlights because they were not level. The passenger side was about 5" lower that the driver's side in 10 feet. I have the bi-xenons. At night the low beams are way to low.....can't drive more than 25mph safely!

How do I adjust these myself?

Golf/GTI VII :: Fog Lights On With High Beams?

Didn't find anything on this, but I've noticed that on my GTI the Fog Lights stay on when the High Beams are turned on. Which I find unusual since no other car I've ever owned did this (Including my '12 TDI), and as far as I understood, in the US (At least here in NY), it was actually illegal to have them both on at the same time. ?
