Bright/Dim Light Question

When I turn bright lights on with turn signal switch dim lights go out. Shouldn't all 4 be on when put in bright mode? And if so,what's the problem?

Re: Bright/Dim Light Question

If the innner hi-beams come on, you have power to the high beams and that's good.
It sounds like either a dirty connector on the outer lights or maybe the high beam filaments in both of them are bad.
I'd try at least wiggling the connectors on the outer lights and if that doesn't help, I'd assume a bad high-beam filament.
