Default Low beams still not working

Hi guys,

I was thrilled at first when I found this post:

https://volvoforums.com/forum/volvo-...working-37696/

....but after I bought the relays then took my dash apart low and behold those relays are working fine and I have power from the switch to the CEM and to the fuse box but not the low beams??? Does anyone have the wiring diagram so I can follow from the fuseBox? My high beams are fine and I bought new bulbs just because. anyone have any idea what to check next???

thanks

Did you install the new bulbs?

Have you checked for power at the light assembly?

Do you have HID's?

Have you checked the main head light switch?

Default Traced things a bit further



OK, so I traced the wires all the way to the headlight assembly/ Housing and I have power at the harness that plugs into the assembly. Thats all I can do without taking the assembly out. I attached an image I got off EBay of the same light housing as I have(so you can see what I was talking about) , what is the blue plug for and why do I have power to it on both driver and passenger sides but no low beams???

Thank you

Did you get this solved? What was it? Bad harness inside the headlight assembly?
