Headlights Issue

Car was sitting for the weekend because I blew a tire on Friday. Sunday, I turned her on just to warm her up and the lights worked. Monday, after work, I did the same thing and the lights worked.
Yesterday, bought some snow tires for it and had the car jacked up on all around. Turned her on, turned on the lights and bam, no front lights (both high and low beams). The signals, hazards, dash works. Everything works except for low and high beams on both head lights. It does have Ebay lights on them. Definitely not a fan of the lights, as it has horrible lighting at night. Could this be a wire/fuse issue or just a faulty Ebay headlight issue?

Haven't had too much time to look at it and having my brother check it out today since I wont be home till 6pm. I will keep this updated.

Thanks!

Haha, yeah. I'm leaning towards the Ebay headlights but just want to make sure because I searched google to see if anything like this happened to anyone else and surprisingly, it did. Same issue.

Re: Headlights Issue

Did you check to see if the bulbs are any good? Have you checked to see if you are getting power to the headlight harness on either side?

I wouldn't fault the eBay headlights yet. There are about 10 things you could check yourself before condemning them.

Re: Headlights Issue

Yeah. Brother was checking it out. He said the fuses were fine. Wires are fine. It might be a 'switch'. So busy this whole weekend and won't even have time to touch her till Sunday. Good thing it's the Christmas weekend.
