Depends. Sometimes it's a bulb with dual filaments(glow wires). One will have a lower power and sit at a slightly different spot in the reflector causing it to cast a lower and weaker beam less likely to dazzle oncoming traffic. Sometimes it's a lower power bulb in its own separate reflector.

Try changing the bulb that doesn't have the low beam. Check at your local auto parts store for the correct bulb.


Why would one headlight not work on low beam but both work on high beam?

If one headlight works on high beam but not on low beam, it typically indicates a problem with the low beam socket, the bulb, or the wiring specific to the low beam circuit. The high beam setting often bypasses certain components, allowing both headlights to function even if one low beam is faulty. It could also be due to a blown fuse or a bad connection in the low beam circuit. Checking the bulb and connections for the non-working low beam is a good first step in troubleshooting.

Its possible that the low beam filimant is burnt out or if you have separate lamps for high and low, that could be it too. You can lookup your vehicle below to see if you have separate high and low beam lamps - this may help - see sources and related links.

Check the bulb Check to see if you are getting power to the socket


When you put your low beams on you only have one headlight that works and you checked fuses and relay that's not it so you have to use your high beams as your lights?

Most likely the vehicle has separate low-beam and high-beam headlight bulbs and you simply have one low-beam bulb that is burnt out.
