Headlights do not turn, no running lights, only high beams work. I replaced fuse for steering wheel illumination but that wasn't the problem.
Do you
have the same problem?

There is a low beam relay that controls the low beams here is a wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works. Here is a guide to help you test the relay and the headlight relay location. #38

I recently threw in some new low beam bulbs in my girl’s aura, and restored the headlights. She also just told me that her lows turn off when she throws her high beams on at night. She said this didn’t always used to happen, and that the lows still sometimes kick on when the highs are on. Think this could be a fuse issue or relay issue?

Nope, when the highs come on the lows go off. Here is a headlight wiring diagrams so you can see for yourself. One relay for the high and one for the low. Use 2CarPros anytime, we are here to help. Check out the diagrams (Below).

I have a problem with my 2008 Aura. The high beams work and the running lights work but I have no low beams. I replaced the relay fuse under the hood but it still does not work.

In the under hood fuse block there is a low beam relay here is a guide to help check it and the relay location as well. Also look at the wiring diagrams above so you can get an idea of how the system works.
