Most everything I've searched for has brought up issues with headlights not going up and/or down...However, the other day my headlights just stopped working? The turn signals still work, but no low or high beams. They're silvia bricks in a 91 coupe..I've checked the two fuses for the headlights obviously, also I changed out the headlight stalk with two known working ones with no different results. Where should I look next?

Check the wires under the fuse box, I had the same problem....I came to find out that it was a relay put in when I put in my swap. The wires were burnt and was making contact only intermittently until they just gave out one day.

thanks for the suggestion. I guess that's where I'm heading next.

checked under the fuse box and the body harness in the fender well...nothing notable as far as damage. Anyone else have other suggestions?

I suppose I need to get a volt meter and go along the headlight wiring, find where the current stops? Which color wires belong to the headlights, anyway?
