  • No headlights over night

    Got in my car this morning, turn on the lights, only parking lights come on and dash lights but no headlights. The bright light indicator is on and stays on. Does this mean there is a bad ground in the circuit? Bad combination switch? Bad head lamp relay? Where is the head light relay, is it the metal looking box on drivers side by the fender?

    Does it show the "brights" are on in the dashboard?

      Yes, the brights indicator is on and stays on even when I try to turn them off.

        Well, my mom's sportage has the same problem.
        The way we fixed it was by jiggling with the conections to the light. And it worked. And it still works.
        After that the brights indicator went off.

            you have no headlamps: check "head" fuseable link at the driver front strut tower first.
