    Okay so basically my headlights are out of service. I figure this problem can be solved by a simple fuse change. Problem is, I don't know which fuse(s) run the headlight. If you have any word on this, please help me out. Thanks in advanced.

    :mad:

    Another problem regarding the headlights; The switch/knob seems to be broken. This could possible answer my first question. Has anyone had trouble with this knob before?

    Thanks

    Thanks a lot for the diagrams ST165-2765. I just checked both fuses and they seem to be working. I guess this is where more troubleshooting comes into play. Any other suggestions? Thanks again

    I would check the 3rd & 4th pages I posted and do the checks there to determine if its your headlight switch.

    Any other electrical problems with the car ?

    Do the headlights pop up? Or pop up and just not turn on?

    They don't pop up or turn on. But I just found out that my front blinkers don't work either. I think something happened to the light control switches. I'll see if I can fix using these guides.

    Do your windshield wipers work ?

    Yes. I'm pretty sure the problem is only on the left hand side of the steering wheel.

    its probably that combination switch. Pull the bottom bezel off under the steering wheel first and check the harness to make sure it is fully plugged in...my 4runner was intermittant on blinkers and headlights and it was because the plug wasn't clicked in
