Did you do a good visual inspection of the headlight area for anything obvious? Perhaps the crash jacked up your wiring. If you had to jimmy the switch to get high beams to work, that tells me the switch could be the problem. Take a look at a wiring diagram and do some basic troubleshooting if you have a multimeter. Here is a link with a couple of diagrams and suggestions that were given to another person with this problem.

SOURCE: Headlights won't turn on. Daytime running lights stay on.

My 2002 S10 had the same problem, I pulled off the bottom of the dashboard and bottom of the steering wheel cover (around 8 bolts). There's a plug on the left side behind the cruise control/high beam stalk with several wires attached to it. Turns out some of the wires had become brittle and moving the steering wheel up and down caused them to short. The four small wires for the cruise control all broke off. I pulled out the metal pins and reattached them to the wires, worked for a while...

SOURCE: daytime headlights wont go off

For starters unplug the battery so it won't go dead. It sounds like an electrical problem possible relay or module gone back. Be careful with this electrical stuff, get a pro to check it out.

SOURCE: Low Beam headlights not working

The daytime running lights run the high beam bulbs at low voltage so it sounds like you need to put the relays back where they were and either replace the low beam bulbs or repair the wiring to them.Also the relay you removed could be defective.

SOURCE: i have a 2003 chevy cavalier. headlight issue

The blinking light is telling you that you have a headlight out, if you look the service light should be coming on when the light stops blinking.
Replace the head light and all should be fine.

Daytime running lights for 2002 chey impala don't work in the dark but work fine in daylight.

Its possible that this is a normal function for your car. They don't want you to use your daytime running lights at night because they are much dimmer than the standard headlights, so there is a sensor (usually near or in the windshield) that detects if it is dark outside. If its dark outside, the daytime running lights will not function, forcing you to use the standard headlights.

Where is adjustment screw for headlights on 2008 impalla

Vic, the adjuster is either a allen key, torx, or #2 philips type bolt found close to the bolt that is holding headlight in place on inner fender rail/flange. I believe on the Impala the only adjustment is up and down of the light beam. Check the attached links,instruction and guides, Good luck

How do I replace the bulb in my daytime running light (DRL) on a 2002 Chevy Tahoe? I can't find a way to take off the lens (without breaking it), or take out the socket from behind. Please help!

Open the hood, then remove the headlight. To remove the headlight, there are 2 "L" shaped brackets, one on the left, one on the right. Rotate them both toward the front of the car, then pick them straight up and the headlight will come out. Now, you have to fiddle with the daytime running light socket a bit. You have to twist it to the right and it will pop out. However, to twist it, there is a plastic piece on it you have to depress to get it out of the way of a 'stop' that protrudes from the daytime running light housing. Take out the old bulb, put in the new one, slide the bulb back in at the angle you took it out, then twist it back and it will snap in place. (The snap is the sound of that plastic piece hitting the gray 'stop'.) Put the headlight back in and you're done.

Pulling to the right.

As long as the vehicle has not hit a curb or been in an accident:
First, check your tire pressure. Make sure the right front brake is not dragging, and next try switching the front tires. If the pull changes to the left the tire is suspect. If that doesn't catch it - have the front end checked by an alignment shop.

The front right tire hit the crub to avoid and accident it bent the sway bar which i replaced but the tire is at a angle and is wearing out the outside of the tire. what else would the problem be?

Your control arm or tie rods may be bent. If you hit a curb hard enough to bend the sway bar other things are probably bent also. Best bet is to take it to a front end shop and have it checked don't just start replacing parts. The car will need to be realigned when parts are replaced.
