Can a blown fuse effect just your high beams?

A blown fuse can affect just your high beam headlights. The high beam and low beam headlights are on separate fuses. The separate fuses ensure that you will not lose all of your license at the same time.


Your peugeot 306 xnd headlights work on full beam the low beam will not work the fuses and lamps are ok and the dashboard light says the low beam is on and it isn't any ideas anyone?

If the low beams are not working on a Peugeot 306, it is possible that the low beam headlights are burned out. If the high beam headlamps are part of the same bulb, perhaps the wrong bulbs are in the sockets. Some older cars have both the high and low beams running off the same bulb and the low beam can burn out both sides at the same time.
