I don't know if they are burnt out.....they work for high beams and not for low beams. I'll have to put this car in storage if I can't figure out how to solve this issue and resurrect my lara.

h4 bulbs almost always burn out the low beam first and then the high still works try swapping one out. BTW on most cars if one low beam fuse goes both lights stop working.

The Low beams on my '96 Camry (9006) went out 2 days apart, haha. When one goes out, more current goes to the other. I;ve seen both go out within 1 week on several cars. So as other said, check the bulbs. :)

Get a volt meter and turn on low beam. Ground one wire off the meter and stick the other one into the low beam prong on the harness. If no signal you might have a bad relay. Have fun searching for it.

This happened on my parents ’00 Camry. I just replaced the bulbs, and everything was ok. Did you try swapping the bulbs out yet? If not try that, if so check the voltage at the socket.
Let's just pretend I didn't grow up, or you're going to be terribly disappointed.
