Re: my headlights dont work
Could be the dimmer switch connection that is what happened to me, the dimmer switch was brand new put the three wires were corroded that is most likely what happened.

Re: my headlights dont work
also check the dimmer switch. Mine did not work so I tried different bulbs, tried the non-working bulbs in a differnt truck and the worked. Chaged the dimmer switch and wal-la "let there be LIGHT" AHHHHHH...
