Did you check to see if the bulbs are blown?

Check the fuse before you starting fooling around the bulbs. They are a pain to take out and re-install. Good Luck.

And... check the low beam relay to see if it's working correctly too 'Course if like rx4to6 says, the fuse is blown the relay will not work either.

You probably already figured out your problem by now, but I bet it is the bulbs. Mine did the same thing. I got my car inspected so I know they were both working, then a week later they were both out. I took it to the dealer thinking that there was some big electrical problem that would be covered under warranty and it cost me $200 for them to change the bulbs. Like someone said above it is a PITA to do it.

I have an '03 6 an have had a sinmilar problem. One of the low beams will go out every 3-4 months or so. I'll replace it just to have the same happen again in a few months. I think the 6 does have some definate electrical problems.

I took mine to the dealership nd they traced the problem back to a bad fuse. I'll see if that was truly the problem 3 months from now.
