I have a 1999 Ford Expedition and the headlights aren't working. When I turn them on the park lights only come on.I have to turn on the high beam lights and hold them in order to have lights. What could be the problem?

Check your fuses, if they are good you have a bad switch

Can someone tell me where the headlight relay is located on a 1999 Ford Expedition

Low beams would be through the dimmer switch on the column. If your relay was bad you would have neither low or high beams.

My headlights won't turn on

It sounds like the headlight relay, in your under hood fuse box you will find this relay, identify it and then have an assistant turn the h/l on and click to high beams then back to low and see if you hear the relay click. If not that's the problem. Now it could be the switch it self but that is a little more complicated diagnosis.

Why are my headlights cutting out when i turn my high beams on?

The problem will be due to a malfunctioning headlight dimmer switch and a dimmer switch connector. Also check the high beam connector.

1994 gmc jimmy headlights wont turn on

go to an accredited auto electrician for electrical work
it may be a switch problem but I think that there is no power to the light relays ( switch or fuses)
if that model has a light control module , it could be that
