Ford 2003 Focus. Low beam headlights not working. Hi beam do. Can get low beam to come on if flip between hi and low but don't stay on.

Hi, check you bubble or replace it.

Its either the switch, the fuse, or the relay(s). Some have seperate relays for each headlamp. The odds of both lamps, hi and low beam, burning out at the same time are nil. Do the hi-beams work? Could also be the hi-beam switch is bad. Turn the light switch on, and jiggle or flip the lever and see what happens.

these newer cars when high beams are on the low beams go off the do not stay on at the same time

I would start at the headlight switch check your ground wires and connections at the light themselves also check the bright dim switch

It's a shorted or worn out headlight dimmer switch mounted on the column.

if the fuses are good then you need to check for power and ground at the headlight plug that attaches to the headlight bulb if you have a good power and ground there and the connections are good then the bulbs are both no good.or if you can tell the bulbs are burnt out by looking at them then you don`t have to check powers and grounds.you also can directly feed power and ground to the bulb and check both the terminals for high beam and low beam as you cannot tell which is which by looking at the terminals

If your highbeams work theres a strong possibility that BOTH your headlight bulbs the low beam filament is burned out, if the highbeams dont work either check all related wiring and fuses for the headlights also the headlight switch on your steering column....

Turn the engine off, open the hood, and disconnect the negative battery cable (--) with your pliers.

Locate the power distribution box against the firewall on the driver's side of the engine compartment. Flip up the latch and remove the plastic cover.

Determine which headlight fuse you want to replace. The 2001 Ford Focus uses four headlight fuses--one for each headlight. Fuse number 16 is for the passenger side low beam; fuse number 17 is for the driver's side low beam. Fuse number 26 is for the passenger side high beam; fuse number 27 is for the driver's side high beam.

Grasp the fuse with your fingers and pull it straight out of its mount. Insert the new fuse in its place. Replace the plastic cover and reconnect the negative battery cable.

the hi-lo beam switch may be bad. i dont think you can turn it off unless you keep playing with the switch and get them to go to low beam.
