I was driving home the other night and when I turned the lights on only the parker globes came on. However when I turn the high beam on all 3 globes come on. that's the two globes in the main light on the outside of the car (parker and the big one) and the seperate globe closest to the grill. Any ideas what might cause this? Are the big globes dual filament? If so, is it unusual for both globes to blow at once? Its giving me the sh*ts and driving on high beam seems to annoy people! Any help would be great. Thanks. Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did the trick. Must have just been a coincidence that they both went at once... Thanks fellas. Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
