    I'm sure the problem is in how you have them wired up

    I had this same issue yesterday. The issue was in the fuse panel. The fuse panel is assembled in two pieces and in my case over time the two sections developed a gap which prevented the relay from making contact as it should have. Cleaned in between the two sections with electronic spray using the little tube extension and viola, snapped the two halves back tightly together. Head lights working perfectly.

    I have a 2000 Pete 379 and have a problem with the left headlight not turning on. It comes on when I put on high beams and all the other lights work work properly. I’ve checked the fuses and relays and tracked back underneath the radiator where there is no power either for left low beam. Am wondering if it’s a switch or if there’s any input

    Your low beam light is probably blown

    Thanks for the reply they’re LED lights and I tried switching them and the right one doesn’t work on the left and the left one works on right so it’s something in the wiring, switches etc.

    Yeah you're the ####### that blinds everyone putting led's in a stock housing.

    Get off this website. This website is for people that can read instructions and follow DOT rules about how to replace headlight bulbs.

    Calm yourself down. You've been on this site about a year and you're telling someone to leave because your little feelers are hurt over a percieved part that you have no idea what he has?
