Trying to figure out what’s wrong with the headlights on my 2017 RAM 1500. These are the steps I’ve taken.

  • all lights worked
  • passenger side head light went out
  • replaced passenger side headlight & high beam
  • replaced driver side headlight & high beam
  • Rear lights are fully functional
  • Passenger side headlight turns on when truck is unlocked
  • Driver side headlight DOES NOT turn on when truck is unlocked
  • Passenger side headlight turns on automatically when dark
  • Driver side headlight turns on automatically when dark
  • Passenger side high beam works
  • Driver side high beam DOES NOT work
  • Passenger side turn signal works/flashes
  • Driver side turns on and stays on while the car is on. DOES NOT flash
  • Dash message says “left turn signal out”
  • Disconnected negative terminal on battery for 1hr and reconnected. Message still comes up
  • Not sure if any fuse is associated with headlights
Will be trying to replace harness next.

Any other suggestions or tips?
