I have a 2000 Jetta GL 2.0 that all of a sudden both daytime running headlights went out. The brights work fine when I push the lever forward or pull it back, as normal. I ofcourse looked at the fuses and both are fine, so I guess I'm thinking a short somewhere. I popped off the paneling to the lower left of the steering column to take a better look at the wiring, but it's pretty hidden in there. Reaching in though, everything seemed to FEEL secure.

I've googled this and it's come up a few times here and there, but I haven't been able to find any answers yet. Anyone know where to look for the problem? Thanks!

Hello, One place to start would be your headlight relay. It may have internal burned points. Al

sounds good. I'll see if I can get a book to find that. Would you know what it would look like if it was burned out? Would it be obvious? Thanks.
