easy....you have a low beam headlight burned out. Take a trip to your local parts store and they will fix you up.
Beams are used when you are driving with no one in the affected area, and you lack the extra light that you would normally have when in "town" or suburban area.
Looking back on your experiment, what would you change?
no. Answer: If you mix red, green and blue light, that's what you get - white light. An interesting observation can be made by overlapping beams of the above colours.
If it is one car - you would use "The car's beams" - If it is more than one car, you would use "The cars beams"
low beams my have burned out
As you would with a car. Most places have laws against using high beams within city limits, but on the interstate or outside cities and towns where streets are well-lit, definitely use your High beams. Make sure to drop to low beams with oncoming traffic though. Hope this helps!
Does the car have fog lights? I have a 2003 Sunfire that the high beams would not work on. This was caused by a short in the fog light wiring. I had the fog lights rewired separate from the harness (about $100) and the problem was fixed.
Why would you? Fog lights are designed for use in poor driving conditions such as fog or rain at night. Using high beams under those conditions would make matters worse, that's why your vehicles fog lights won't operate when the high beams are on.
bad light switch.
No, when it is not in use, the microwave would not have a light on. Why would you want the light on when you are not using it and waste energy?
Bad dimmer switch.
Headlights have two filaments; one for low beams and one for high beams. There is a good chance that the low beams are burnt out. This doesn't necessarily mean that the high beams won't work. However, it's not too common for both low beams to burn out at the same time. Of course, it could be a fluke. I would replace the headlights with new ones and then go from there.
