How do you change spark plugs in a 1999 Chrysler Sebring?
First to change the spark plugs 1, 3, and 5 on the Chrysler Sebring its required to uninstall the upper intake plenum, so you could get to the rear spark plugs, benieth the plenum. Here are the steps for removing and replacing the plugs on cyl 1,3,and 5 of the V-6:
Disconnect negative cable from auxiliary jumper terminal (I believe this is the ground wire tied to the strut tower on the driver's (left) side of the car).
Unplug the connectors from the MAP sensor and (just to its front) the intake air temp sensor.
Remove the plenum support bracket bolt located rearward of the MAP sensor
Remove the bolt holding the air inlet resonator (the thing with words "multi-point injection") to the intake plenum.

Always remove the ignition cable by grasping at the spark plug boot turning the boot 1/2 turn and pulling straight back in a steady motion
Prior to removing the spark plug spray compressed air around the spark plug hole and the area around the spark plug to keep debris and dirty oil from falling into the cylinder. These loose debris can cause serious dammage.
Remove the spark plug using a quality spark plug socket with a rubber foam insert. Inspect spark plug condition. To avoid cross-threading start the plug into the cylinder head by hand
Tighten the spark plugs to 20 ft-lbs (28 N-m)
Install ignition cables over spark plugs
Install new gasket and position upper intake plenum. Tighten blots to 13 ft-lbs (18 N-m)
Install bolts at plenum support brackets (Same torque as above)

This is most likely an electrical issue, and may have nothing to do with fuses. If the headlight switch has failed, both headlights will be inoperative. On many cars, there are separate fuses for right and left headlights, so both of them failing at the same time is unlikely. Your best bet would probably be to take the vehicle to an automotive electrical specialty shop, and have them check it out. They will usually be able to find the problem in a few minutes, so the service chrarge is not likely to be extreme. If the headlight switch has failed, be ready to shell out some cash to buy a new one, because it will have to come from the dealer, unless you want some kind of ghetto rig that could fry your whole wiring system.
