Default 1996 Civic Headlight wiring harness

Somewhere in the wiring is burnt out(low-beam), causing me to use my high-beams all the time. Anyone know where I can just get a brand new complete headlight wiring harness, instead of me going through the hassle of finding where its burnt out and replacing?

Thanks.

What brings you to this conclusion?

Have you checked whether the low beam fuses or bulbs are blown?

My low beams were bad so I re-grounded and got new harnesses(autozone has them for like 10-15bucks for a pair) and mine have been fine since.

well, it was just in the passenger side where the low beam was not working. thinking it was the exposed tip thats spliced into the HID ballast i just cut a little off and re-spliced it. still didnt work. so i just concluded that it was somewhere else.

.hawaii,

Hondapartsnow.com sells the OEM headlight wiring harness for about $75: 1996 Honda Civic OEM Parts Just input your vehicle info, select the Electrical/Exhaust/Heater/Fuel section and then it's under the Wire Harness components listing.

Good luck resolving the issue, man

check your fuses. you said you have HIDs? i just had this problem as well and the problem ended up being that i kept blowing fuses because the bulb was bad. i'm running with one HID one not right now untill i get the other bulb shipped.
