Headlights - brights work, regular won't come on?

I just put in some used headlights for a 1996 Hyundai Accent. The brights
work, but the regular headlights do not come on. I looked at the bulbs and
the filaments seem to be ok. Any ideas as to what could be the problem?

 

I would start with fuses. Does the accent have a different fuse for
the highbeams & lowbeams?

 

You should start with replacing the DRL module.

 

Go to www.hmaservice.com, get a login, and check the schematic (if you're
in the U.S.) That'll help you trace and find the problem. And the fuses
and relays are the first place to start.

 

The 1996 Hyundai accent doesn't seem to have a separate fuse for high and
low beams. I am not sure where the DRL module is located, or if this model
has one.

 

If you're in the U.S., you don't have DRL.
