One high beam works one doesn't, gauge cluster does not light up

Low beams work fine but when I click to high beam only the passenger high beam comes on and driver's side low shuts off completely. The gauge cluster and the cruise control button do not light up as well. I replaced the instrument panel fuse that was blown with the same amperage as factory recommended and still no illumination. I also replaced both headlight bulbs as well and still no high beam on the driver's side and the blue light does not come on when set to high beam either. Any thoughts would be great, I'm stuck!

Thanks

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.

One low beam head lights will not work, high beam works though

check for a damaged wire for the low beam. Also wouldn't hurt to check the ground wire as the high beam will try and ground through the low beam but not visa verse

The headlights on my 84 chevy pickup are not working properly. When lights are on, and set for low beam, my driver side low beam does not come on - the passenger side does. When I set the high beams,...

You have lost the ground, evidently on the left side. The lamps act that way because one of the lamps is grounding through the elements of the other lamp.

I have a 1995 Ford Explorer Limited and the high beams work but the low beams and fog lights do not, please help....

These trucks are known for bad multifuction switches.
the switch that i talk of is the signal switch , the handle is the switch, it bolts to side of steering column . this switch controls the signals and the headlights and high /low beams. the other thing is the headlight switch connector, the connector some times goes bad and starts to melt or just comes out of the connector. you will need to remove the cover to steering column, the screws are located under the bottom cover in holes. remove cover and check connector and then test for power if you have power going into switch but not coming out then switch is bad.

the last thing is to make sure the bulbs are good , make sure the headlight bulbs are good , and also the driving light bulbs, test for power at the connectors to those lights to.
You will need to do a little testing to find the problem.

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.

Don't know that much about 99 Surburbans but you may won't to see if you could just unplug it from the cluster or maybe see if thiers a fuse for your lights that you can take out
