    Both low beam headlights not working, need help

    Hey guys,
    need massive help. My low beams stopped working when i turned the car on a few nights ago. all other lights are working fine.
    All fuses appear to be fine (in fuse box - labelled "L and R headlight")
    Unsure about both bulbs going at once, because my R sight headlight was replaced after a crash last year. I did have a look at the bulb, the filament was intact,however the bulb was a dark blue gassy colour around the filament (not sure what this mean)

    Also checked the plug on the actual stalk for the headlights, and it seemed to be fine.

    really not sure what is going on, any help would be appreciated

    If the fuses are fine. Get a multi meter put on Volts dc. And test so voltage at the globe terminals. If no voltage id check around were the damage was to see for damage to the wireing loom. And just trace the loom and look for problems!!

      HID or halogen? If HID might be the ballast?

        Just stock lights. Traced the wiring loom as far as I could, and saw no obvious things wrong. Nothing similar with DC5s on the net

            sorry guys, not sure how to close the thread. but it did turn out that both bulbs were gone, even though they didnt seem that bad. replaced with Narva plus 100, so nice.
