Headlight and fogligh problems - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #89922 6 posts Started by celicaNOR
Hi there all fellow celica owners (or pre-owners) smile.gif

I have encountered a annoying problem with my lights on my toyota celica. The headlights and the fog lights suddently gave up on me, this is a Norwegian car, so the park lights go on when i turn on the ignion.
But when I flick the switch for the normal lights, the headlights will not come on, howere, I can still use the "high beam" lights. The fog lights don`t respond either if I try to switch them on.

I don`t think the fuses are bursted. I tried to swap them. When I turn the switch I can here that the relay flicks in the engine room.
Have someone encountered the same problem before? Is there any electrial drawings/schemes online (edit: found the electrical drawings)?

This is a Celica 1.8 T20 1998 modell.

best regards

Recently had a similar issue on my Murano. The relay was clicking but it was still broken. Try swapping your low beam and high beam relays to see what happens.

Thanks for the advice, I will start troubleshooting first thing in the morning. Just wanted to hear if there were other owners witch have encountered the same problem.
Well, I tried to swap the relay for the high beam and low beam headlights. That didn`t work. So I tried to swap the fuses also, that didn`t work either.
The strange thing is, when I took out the relay for the low beam headlights and turned on the high beam. The fog lights came on, it wasn`t very strong, it was simiular to a 5W light booble.
Did you ever solved the probelm? My celica is doing the same thing... I'm driving around with my high and low beam connectors switched around
