headlights problem

[especko]

there's something wrong with my left side headlight. the bulb does not light up at low beam, but when i put it on high beam it lights up. and same goes to my rear brake light, when i step on the brake, the rear left side brake does not light up and only light up when i turn on the night light. i got a feeling that all the light in my car is going off. my foglights died as well. don't know if it really died or just going cuckoo like the left front and rear lights. what do you guys think about it? is there a problem in the wiring connection or is there a problem with the fuse?

your headlight bulb gone liao, same as your brake bulb. what is your ride by the way?

First check all bulbs. Then check the alternator.

i'm driving a 97 civic.

i don't think there's anything wrong with the front and rear bulb. cause there's only one bulb for each light. the front headlight does not light up on low beam and only light up on high beam.

same goes to the rear light, doesn't light up when i step on the brake and only light up when i turn on the night light.

any other opinions? i'm planning to get it checked tomorrow :S

the front (H4) and rear tail/brake light is twin filament.
one of the filament burn already. get it replaced and problem will solve.

oh alright. that's something new that i just learned, never knew it has 2 filaments in a bulb.

now i'm afraid that there might be a spike in my car's electric current. 2 bulbs blew including the front fog lights as well. damn....

especko, when was last time you change your bulb? Every bulb have their own lifespam.
