I just replaced the steering computer under the dashboard thisweek. All went well and my steering now works perfectly.Unfortunately, a strange thing has happened.

Since I finished this, when I turn my headlights on, only the hi-beams come on, and I have no side or tail or dash lights. I took apart the dash again, thinking I had broken something while working on the steering. I could not find anything broken or out of place.

Please let me know where to start. I had recently replaced theheadlight relay under the hood, so I would be surprised if that hadgone bad this fast. Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Thanks,Bryan

fuses? maybe you shorted something while the dash was apart. Though, I assume the fuse box is the first place you checked.

Are you using oem bulbs? Where did you get headlight relay? Why did you have to replace it.........fairly rare with oem bulbs changed at reasonable intervals [before they blowout]....when color shifts to yellow].

Follow the wiring diagrams in your FSM........making sure the stalk switch is working.
