1998 SSEI Hi Beam bulb out indicator

[Kevin Amstutz]

Hi Beam bulb message center says my Hi Beam bulb is faulty, but hi beams work fine. What makes the message center say the hi beams are out?

Thanks,

Kevin

The wrong resistance in the circuit. Have you added any lights on that circuit or recently replaced a bulb? If you replaced one, can you verify the bulb number was correct?

If none of this is true, carefully disconnect the hi-beam harnesses, clean the contacts, apply dielectric grease, recconnect, and allow some time for the ALCM to reset the circuit.

I will check. A stone broke my main head light lens and I replaced it with another I had. No after market lights added, all stock.

Got it! Kids... asked my 16 year old if the lights were working, when I operated the lights from inside the car, he didn't know that I meant BOTH lights! Fixed it and good to go. Thanks!
