One is a hi beam, one a low beam. If one of the fiaments is broken inside the headlight, you will have to replace the bulb or sealed beam. Check fuses first. -- Rick Sherrod Macon, GA kdf_cars@mylink.net http://www.mylink.net/~kdf_cars 83.5 Vanagon (FS) 88 Fox (FS) 81 Diesel 5000 (FS) 83 Volvo Diesel (hers) 82 Ex-Diesel V6 Vanagon project (his) http://www.mylink.net/~kdf_cars/v6van1.html |
