Last week both of my low beam headlamps went out at the same time. This week both highbeams went out leaving me in the dark. I checked both bulbs, they are good. I replaced the pull switch, but that made no difference. I also checked every fuse I could find, but you got it, no difference. Anybody who could help would be appreciated as I am without wheels until this problem is solved. Thanks!

Hello, did you check for voltage at the headlamp connector, with the headlamp switch turned on? If there is good voltage check ground. If no voltage, check the multifunction switch. You might be able to check wiring circuit to and from the multifunction switch at the multiwire wire connector under the dash, before the circuits go into the steering column, your dimmer is on the steering column, I forgot to check? I don't have the wiring colors in front of me, but, we can find them, if necessary.

Yes the side marker lights do work. It's strange that first both low beams went out, then a few days later both high beams went out. Any ideas

I didn't check the voltage at the headlight connector, but I will. I don't know how to check the multi function switch, but I do know it was replaaced about a year ago at the ford service center.
