If the dimmer switch is bad, it is inside the steering column. Not a particularly good DIY job unless you have a warm shop full of tools and nothing better to do.
Like I said before, he was probably driving with one for some time and never noticed. 2 bulbs blowing at once would not be a common occurrence.
The good news is that it's working and it didn't cost more that the car is worth.
The cold weather usually causes the headlights to turn on.
Sounds like it was known, but ignored for quite a while before they all burnt out. Hope I'm wrong, but that's my guess. I see people driving around all the time like that. Good for your son's gir's father.Going to run this by you all. Son called and while he was at work, his girlfriend's dad, replaced the lightbulbs, and it works. He did have high beams... not low beams. Her dad only replaced the bulbs. I am grateful to this man for being so good to my son, yet, I need to ask, being they both blew, and both high beams were working, but, not the lows, does it sound like this is all it was? I really like my kid. lol.
thanks, I'm sorry.ha ha. I will ignore this one.
I am here you know, lol. And, how did you get your rocket to work?
I just added some Rocket Fuel.
If anything is actually broken mechanically down there, you need to remove the interior door trim panel and see what's going on. If it's electric windows, when you press the button, do you hear any sounds from inside the door? Other windows work OK? Maybe the operating switch is bad. Driver's door?Got this question about a car window. It is stuck down. It is winter. It is snowing. It won't go up, so it is now covered with plastic. My son thinks it is the clamps inside the window holding it, nothing electrical. How can I fix this?
Thank you.
Maybe if you don't find anything, you should bring the car to the dealer or a mechanic for evaluation? How old is the car? The reason I asked if it the driver's window is that it is usually the only window in a car that cannot be operated by a passenger in another seat, and the problem may be the driver window switch itself, but on the other hand, if the glass is loose down there, the glass may have unglued itself from the bottom lifter rail mechanism. That used to be very common in older cars.I was thinking not knowing which would be the lessor of the problems, but, possibly, related to the headlight problem. Since, the timing is there. But, he said, he doesn't think it is electrical, and, yes, it is the drivers window. I didn't ask him if he heard any sounds, but he said, the window glass moves about. Always something.
I am going to take a look at it in the morning.
This is awkward, but...
