Low beams out.

Try replacing the low beam fuse anyhow.

Well I went to the dealer this morning... (First Time) And found out #1 what a cool place the service department is. #2 that both bulbs had some how gone out at the same TIME..!!! The service advisor had seen that only one other time. #3 that even the bulbs are replaced under warranty. Crazy. Oh and that all the service on my 01 is free under warranty... Wasn't really sure.

Well for all of those that have had bad experiences with dealers, I recommend R&H in Maryland... They rock. Got me in and out in no time flat... and I ordered a spare key which wasn't as expensive as I thought.

That's why I installed a pair of PIAA for driving light on my brush guard.
