get a vlot meter and test for power at the headlight plug and work your way back to the switch. i think a manual will give detailed instructons on how to test the switch.

Hey thanks "Origin" for sticking up for me,But i do believe that he has checked the relays,and i believe they are all alright.Could it be the switch to turn the lights on?i am not sure that is why i am asking.Thanks for all the replys again.
