Hello my fellow Ram mates, I am new to this forum so forgive me if I am posting this thread in the wrong section. heres the moral of the story. My drivers side low beam headlight used to work intermittently for the past week and now it decided to not turn on at all. the passenger low beam still works. and the hi beam works for both the drivers and passenger side. is this a problem with the switch? or is it the FCM that I have been reading about? also what leads me to think that it is a switch is because the same thing is happening with my fog lights even though they aren't part of the FCM. the drivers fog light works but the passenger fog light doesn't. sometimes it will turn on though while im driving. any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Ok, I'm not trying to sound like a **** but have you tried replacing bulbs?

My Dakota had a headlight burn out while I was 4 hours from home. Being in the car business I've learned a neat trick with bulbs. Smack it and it may come back on. The reason behind this is if you get lucky enough, the filament will re-weld itself and work for a short period of time. After smacking mine, it worked for another 3 months.


AND, Welcome to the forum.
