Same low beam headlight keeps burning out ive replaced 3 now same side headlight in 7 years???

PAWEL IS A BOT. HE POSTS GENERIC ANSWERS. AND OVERLAYS NAME OF YOUR CAR. 82 GENRIC ANSWERS HIM
AND LIES ABOUT IGN SWITCH.
NOW YOUR CAR.! FACTS, ONLY, 1 CAR
LEARN TO USE THE DMM , CORRECTLY;
HEAD LAMPS ON.(SWITCH) NO KEY IS NEEDED FOR HL.
IS DRIVER LEFT OR RIGHT,? IN USA LEFT.
IS HIGH AND LOW BEAMS DEAD LEFT? No TOLD AT ALL.
PUT METER BLACK LEAD TO THE BATTERY NEG LUG
THEN PROBE RED TO ALL WIRES OF DEAD LAMP 1 BY 1.
12VDC IS GOOD 0 BAD
IF LAMP GROUND PIN READS 12VDC <<< GROUND FAILS.

LEFT LAMP USES GROUND LUG G101. IF R

CAR HAS DRL. SO DRL AND MANUAL LAMPS FAIL
HIGH , LOW , AND FLASH HIGH>? NOT TOLD
DOES ENGINE RUN? OMG NOT TOLD.
THIS CAR RUN HL RELAYS BY BCM CONTROLLER BRAIN


FUSE ARE ON THE OUTPUT OF ALL HL RELAYS
SO IF ALL FUSES INPUT(TOP) ARE DEAD,THAT MEANS
BCM IS FAILING. OR THE SWITCH TO IT.
OR FUSES BLOW TO BCM
WE SCAN THE PCM/BCM TO SE WHY.


HEAD LAMPS ON THE 4 FUSES ALL 4 RIGHT SIDE ARE
12VDC, IF NOT BCM IS MESSED UP, OR RELAY DEAD.
HE LOW BEAM RELAY RUNS BOTH SIDE
SAME WITH BEAM. A RELAY FOR IT.
DRL HOT ONLY IN DRL MODE.
DRL; HAS A SUN SENSOR (AUTO MODE)


BOTTOM HERE IS HEAD LAMPS.SIDE.

HEAD LAMPS ON USA WORK EVEN KEYOFF
SO DOES BCM TO DO THAT, MAIN BATTERY NOT DEAD

Your best bet , take your vehicle to a qualified repair shop . Before you want to replace the BCM . . Professional tech would check for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble code's in the BCM before replacing part's that are not needed .

No signal at signal wire on relay ???? Which circuit wire mite that be ? Hooking up a factory or professional scan tool to view input data from the switch would also be a good step .

Headlamps
The headlamps may be turned ON 2 different ways. First, when the driver places the headlamp switch in the HEADLAMP position, for normal operation. Second, with the headlamp switch placed in the AUTO position, for automatic lamp control (ALC). During ALC, the headlamps will be OFF in daylight conditions, or low beam operation in low light conditions. Battery positive voltage is supplied to the low beam relay and the high beam relay in the underhood fuse block. When low beam headlamps are requested, the body control module (BCM) supplies ground to the coil side of the low beam relay. This activates the relay and the relay supplies voltage to the left hand low beam headlamp through the LH LOW BEAM fuse and to the right hand low beam headlamp through the RH LOW BEAM fuse. Ground for the left hand low beam headlamp is provided at G101. Ground for the right hand low beam headlamp is provided at G102. When high beam headlamps are requested, the body control module (BCM) supplies ground to the coil side of the high beam relay. This activates the relay and the relay supplies voltage to the left hand high beam headlamp through the LH HIGH BEAM fuse and to the right hand high beam headlamp through the RH HIGH BEAM fuse. Ground for the left hand high beam headlamp is provided at G101. Ground for the right hand high beam headlamp is provided at G102.

Place the headlamp switch in the HEADLAMP position.
Place the headlamp dimmer switch in the LOW position.
Do the low beam headlamps illuminate?
YES - Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections
NO - Go to Step 3

Disconnect the turn/headlamp switch connector C2.
Connect a 15-amp fused jumper between the headlamp low beam signal circuit and a good ground.
Do the low beam headlamps illuminate?
YES - Go to Step 4
NO - Go to Step 5
4
Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the turn/headlamp switch. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
YES - Go to Step 7
NO - Go to Step 6

It's more then likely the dimmer switch .

DTC B2575
Circuit Description
The body control module (BCM) turns on the LOW BEAM relay when the ambient light sensor senses a dark condition or the low beam headlamps are requested ON. Battery positive voltage is supplied to the LOW BEAM relay at all times. The BCM grounds the LOW BEAM relay control circuit in order to activate the relay.
DTC Descriptor
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC B2575 Headlamp Control Circuit

B2575.01
Will set if there is a short to voltage in the low beam relay control circuit.
B2575.06
Will set if there is an open or short to ground in the low beam relay control circuit.

How did jump starting the vehicle burn headlamp wire ? Check the left low beam fuse # 7 10 amp - located in the underhood fuse / relay box. Does the high beam work on the right side ? The light that is dimly lit has a ground issue or not enough voltage ,testing that circuit using voltage drop testing would be the way to find the problem . Do you know what a wiring diagrams is ? an how to read one ? How to use a DVOM - digital volt ohm meter to test electrical circuit's ? Watch these two guy's video on voltage drop testing.

Electric Testing Techniques You Need to Know

If you have standard halogen bulbs:

1. Burned out light bulb; or
2. Fried wires between the dashboard wiring harness and the headlight bulb connectors; or
3. Fried headlight bulb connectors.

If you have HEI emitters:

• Failed ballast.

When either the high or low beam light is out in either side, DRL (daytime running lights) indicator will come on. When one bulb goes out, that's a clue the opposite bulb will burn out soon, so its best to replace both bulbs. If it was a fuse issue, both left and right side would be out. If driver side is OK but passenger side is not, then its a bulb issue. A 2006 Honda civic takes 9006 (HB4) low beam bulbs and 9005 (HB3) high beam bulbs. Cheapest is online from Walmart site-2-store. After procuring, wear latex, vinyl, or ANY gloves to keep your (corrosive) oil skin from coming in contact with headlight glass bulbs. Your skin oil will chemically react and cause shorter life span on glass bulbs. Instruction don't tell you this, so you handle with your hands, then need to replace bulbs 3 years later instead of 5 years (or more) in the future. With gloves on, pop the hood and look behind each headlight. Turn counter clockwise to unlock headlight bulb holders. Its a quarter to half turn to unlock bulb holder lock. Replace one bulb at a time so you don't confuse high beam from low beam. The wire has a tab you need to lift to pull out & disconnect wire connector. You might need a slim narrow-**** (NOT phillips) screwdriver to lift the tab; or use your house key. Snap the wire connector to the new bulb, then twist into headlight housing to secure bulb holders, then move on to the next bulb to repeat the procedure. Pict below, 9005 high beam is on the left, 9006 low beam is on the right. Handle by grasping the plastic base, not the glass bulbs. The raised potrusion on the bottom center is where the tab locks onto wire connector. Replace all 4 bulbs now, but in the future, its likely the low beam will wear out before the high beam. In the future, replace only the pair, not all 4. The factory installs inferior bulbs that go out sooner, hoping you'll take to dealership and they ******** you with higher parts-n-labor fees. As opposed to Walmart online site-2-store, it would cost you AT LEAST triple in parts & labor from dealership to replace all 4 headlight bulbs :-(

if you have H4 headlight bulbs ( with 3 pins) looking at them from the front of the vehicle the pin on the right hand side of the bulb is earth, the center one is low beam & the one on the left hand side of the bulb is high beam, if you are still unsure use a test light to check......hope this helps.......cheers.

Power for the headlights on the Left side (High and low beam.) comes from the same fuse... The ORANGE wire and the ORANGE/BLACK are the same, they connect in the harness. If you only lack the 12v to make the light work connect them at the headlight assembly.

If your low beam also lacks ground the Left low beam ground is shared with the right low beam ground... Run a wire from left low beam DARK BLUE to right low beam DARK BLUE/WHITE.

If its not working now then your cursed, seek a witch doctor.

you say you replaced both bulbs, you mean right and left or both the high beam and the low beam on left side?could be a bad ground for the left headlight. there should be some ground wires there near the headlight, LF corner under hood. without a wiring diagram here at home,I am not much help.

Ill guarantee you have an electrical short on the left side of the headlight switch,circuit.From here its immpossible for me to go any further.Good Luck.,Get A Wiring diagram.

Im just curious if you found a fix for this issue because I'm curently having the same problem with 98 civic?
