Default Headlights EP3... Question..Anyone have this happen

I know this sounds stupid but my lights on my car were working fine, but then one light went out and i thought i blue the bulb or fuse and when i checked it seemed ok. But the funny part is that when I have the highbeams on, that bulb works, has anyone had this problem? Thanks alot

Replace the bulb. Our headlights are H4 bulbs which are dual filament high/low bulbs. Its similar to a brake light going out where it will still light up with the headlights on but not when using the brakes. I have to laugh a little at this question, but at least its tech..... kinda

This has happened on my S2K before(never on my old EP3). All I had to do is turn the lights off, then turn them back on. If that doesn't work, replace the bulb.

Man i had the exact same problem you described. The driver side headlight would actually turn on after a short while and work fine until the car was turned off and sat for a while. Bumping the headlight a little would cause the light to turn on also. It eventually blew and i replaced both leadlights. Its worked fine since i did that about 3 days ago. If thats not it, honda gets to fix it.
