PLEASE HELP! 92 Camaro headlights won't turn on! Sign In

I drive a 92 Camaro RS and the other day the headlights went out and wont come back on. I checked all the fuses and brought it to auto zone and they mentioned something about a relay... when they went to look for it, they couldn't find where the relay would be and it doesnt say anything about a headlight relay in the manual, if you have any ideas please help! thank you!!

Do the high beams work?
Have you tried the bulbs yet?

Yes bulbs are good, even the brights. Nothing is coming on but the parking lights, and the tail lights all work.

How did you determine that the bulbs were good? Did you actually replace one?

Does your car have daytime running lights?

It's likely a bad dimmer switch. Locate the tan wire coming out of it and see if you have power when the low beams are on. If not, the switch is likely bad.
