    I got a Peterbilt 587. I bought the truck with the headlights out because the hood was just repaired. I put headlights back in and only have low beam headlights. Any ideas on why I don’t have high beam? IMG_2106.png IMG_2106.png IMG_2106.png IMG_2104.png

    Check the fuses, hi beam should have its own fuse, at least separate from low beam. If that is ok I would then check for power at the headlight connector. Could be the switch, wiring or the chassis node. What year is the truck? Check and clean any grounds on the frame rail near the front of the truck.
