97 civic ex high beams not working
i took my new to me 97 ex through a car wash last night, on my way home i went to use the high beams, and they turned a real bright purple and went off. the fuses are good and i have not found the relays yet. i have not checkout the bulbs either, but i don't think they would both burn out at the same time. the low beams still work fine.

check your bulbs...next weakest link

Re: 97 civic ex high beams not working
if the bulbs were damaged, both hi and low beams wouldnt work.
also both sides typically dont go out together if it was a problem with the bulb its probably raining in indiana though, cause i;m next door in chicago and its pouring down but the most important thing other than the bulbs is checking if you have voltage at the the connector |
Re: 97 civic ex high beams not working
i forgot hondas are single bulbs. I actually watched a few bulbs turn purple before blowing. Good point tho

thanks all i will check them out later and any one know where the relay is for the high beams just so i can rule them out |
Re: 97 civic ex high beams not working
There's no relay in the circuit.
How did you check the fuses for the high beams? Which fuses did you check? |

Re: 97 civic ex high beams not working
the fuses i use are clear and you can see if the are blown or not?
it turned out that the light bulb filament for the high beams burnt out so i will be replacing them later. i have never seen both high beams on a car burn out at the same time before. |

how do you all fill about yellow headlight bulbs in a civic? i know in some cars that don't produce enough light out put bc the way the headlights are made but in some car the work just fine. |
