- Chevy Trailblazer no low beam headlight fix.
So this is a an aggravating issue!
No headlights or low beam lights but the high beams do work?
This can be an easy fix. Replacing the HDM or headlight driver module is a common solution and easy to install.
These cost about 30.00 off of Amazon or at your friendly local auto parts store.
I bought mine off Amazon, primarily because shipping was faster.

Thank u so much dude I have had this problem for over a month I changed the bulbs, the fuses and nothing until I said f%+k it let me google it, and ur video was the first to pop up, it really saved my butt. Big thank u
Frank Marquez You’re very Welcome! I’m glad it helped 😃
Man thank you so much for this video. I started having this problem about a week ago but after watching this video I was able to wake up this morning and fix it myself and it only took me 3 mins.
The decade I've been looking at CZcams this is the most helpful video I have found. Thanks
mark browder Very Welcome :)
Thanks so much!! Saved me unknown $$ (and time) by not having to go to the Auto Shop. $29 dollars and only a few minutes to have fully functioning headlights. Can't thank you enough for your willingness to help us all! And, I just subscribed! :-)
If your high beams work, you can swap the low and high beam HDMs in an emergency. They're the same part number. Great video!
Brandon Stelly is that safe to do?
You really helped me out with this comment. It worked! Thanks!
I swapped them, but it didnt help. But even with both off, the high beams still work. So they both might be broken, some people would have to replace both. Once i replace both, ill let you know.
I have this problem and I will definitely try this out tomorrow. Thank you for the information.
It's dark but it's exactly what I needed to see thanks Cheap Geek!
here it is on Jan 01 2018 when I find this Video, go to the truck, swith the relays to verify and there it goes the lights work, THANKS for this posting you have saved a lot of people some headaches and lots of Money,
Thanks for leaving a comment! I'm glad it helped :)
I was getting so frustrated nothing was working and this fixed it thank you so much !!!!
Dude! Thank you so much!! $28.00 & 2 min. & I had my low beams back. Great video.
+Jenks Hedgepath Yay! Glad it helped :)
I just subscribed to your channel and thank God i found you because my trailblazer did the same to me today. $30.00 is alot cheaper than going to a mechanic.
👍👍
Thank you. I followed the link. $26 later, part is on it's way.
Thanks Dude! I had the same problem. Now I can get to 400,000 miles on my 2002 Chevy Trailbazer!
Nice!
thank you!!! I was able to fix my truck on my own and save 40 bucks on the part. thanks so much
Marcy H Very Nice! Good deal. thanks for watching the video:)
Thank You! I was able to do this on my own and saved money!
Your the man. One is being pass down to me with that issue, now i know how to fix it in no time at all. Thanks!!!
+sam k. Sweet! Let me know if it works for you :)
CheapGeek yes it worked just that quick and easy. My truck is an 02 so fuses was a little different but works just as you said all the same. Thanks again
Followed your instructions and it worked!!! Awesome! Thanks
A Matute Very Nice! Glad it worked 😎
You helped me zero in on the problem-you are awesome!
michael matyas glad to hear it 😀
Thank you so much for the advice. It worked great
Thanks a million for this video. Finally something that I can do myself. Take Care.
Broken Silence That's great!:)
trailblazer Detroit. thanks worked great
Do you have any advice on a single headlight out? I changed the bulb I also removed the fuse and it looks good. Would that same relay affect just a single bulb?
thanks for the video, now I got low beams.
Thanks. You saved me a ton of money.
Thank you this is such a big help
gracias
por El tip
pude arreglar mi chevy trailblazer
Thank you
been having similar problem on my 2012 GMC Sierra,swill try????
Thanks! The Relay fixed the low beams on my GMC Envoy, different part number for Envoy than Trailblazer but same thing mostly. Only now my high beams only work when I pull back the lever to flash them. High beams don't work when I push lever forward to keep them on. Any suggestions? I would greatly appreciate it. Again Thank you!
Great Solution. Easy to follow. Best CZcams.
Dude, I started looking for this module and when I went to check the lights. They started working!
Same here. While driving the low beams go out for about a minute and then come on. What did you do to fix it? Thanks
@@whatthe2458 i hit the headlight, (like Fonzi) hey! It might have a loose wire but there are 2 different bulbs.
I have been looking for this video all day for my 94 silverado, exact same problem, now i have to find the modulator in there somewhere
Did you ever figure out the issue?
Good video, that voice is golden bro, u sound like Negan from walking dead lol
MEfoo haha!
Thanks, you save my week lunch money....
My dr. side headlight on my 06 trailblazer will shut off and come on while im driving and even when car is parked. I replaced headlight housing with aftermarket factory replacement housings about 6 months ago or so. I think it might be headlight socket but not for sure. Would like your opinion before I cut into wire harness. TY
I had the same problem with my 2009 Silverado, so I changed the relay and that did not help. My light bulbs had to be replaced. I should have checked them first and then the fuses and relays.
thanks , great job , fixed my problem..
+Stanley Harris Excellent! Thanks for watching and letting me know :-)
thank you so much you just helped me make up my mind if intrested i could explain how.
Explain! Unless it’s spammy. 😉
thanks for the info ,it was the module!
+Thomas Holley good!
Thanks alot .... did what u said ... and I got headlights now
You’re Welcome! Glad to hear it.👍
thank you so much yes it does help me the exact same thing I mean the exact same thing was going on with my car and the repair shop said it was going to be expensive so I am going to be trying this myself I am a woman so I think he was trying to get over on me
Thanks you help me!!!😀😀😀
Thanks i need fix my car ..i hope tis is problem.
Dude you're f****** awesome I'm going to try this on my Malibu who has the same issue 09

Hello.. Have that Same Problem on a 96 Chevy Tahoe.. Changed Relay and they were on but now they are not working. How do I find theHDM if there is one? It bugs me that they don't work.. Thank you. 😢
Dude thank you so much
Giovanni Sanchez you’re very welcome! Thanks for commenting!
checked everything but this. crossing my fingers this is whats wrong with my truck! thanks for the info
SdAudio Enterprise Good luck! 🍀 Let me know if it works 😎
Do you happen to have any information on how to fix my low beam? The driver's side day runner light comes on, but when it gets dark and/or I turn my headlights on it doesn't switch to the low beam. Any ideas? Passenger side works just fine!
Thanks guys for all this information i save 840
worked perfectly
tyvm
Excellent!
Mine worked and then would stop working. there is 2 modules side by side and they are the same, one works the fan clutch and the other the lights. I swapped them and my lights worked so I know it's that module and my fan clutch worked also but can't trust that and will replace.
My headlights come on when they want to i can start my car and just high beams no low beams sometimes i get in and start my car they work flawless only a low beam problem 06 Monte Carlo ss any ideas ?
I have a Chevy 2007 Trailblazer cranks but wont start I've already tried the new battery I've tried the starter relay still nothing cranks but won't start what could be the problem? Can you please help.
Thanks for saving me from paying an arm and a leg . 🙏🏿
Angelique Moore You're Welcome. :)
THANK YOU! I just fixed my lights!
One thing to note, there are 2 relay things one for the fan and one for the lights. I guessed which one I needed to replace got it wrong the first time & got it the second time (duh) but nothing bad happened Soooo that doesn't mess anything up, right?
i have the exact opposite problem! my low beams work but the high don't, same part?
Lmao thank u so much. Ur a life saver
oh yes I'm subscribing
Thanks it fixed mine.
billy slone good! glad to hear it. :)
About 2 give this a try....😁 waiting on the relay fuse 😁....
Good luck!
@@CheapGeek it worked 😁
thanks dude!
You're Welcome!
Is there a way to see that the HDM is what needs to be replaced before buying it? $30 is pretty cheap when it comes to a car. But I'm just wondering.
Not that I can see. There’s only one HDM. So there’s nothing to swap it with. 😉
Ive done the swap and my dims still dont work if the fuses are good and the swap didnt work what would you suggest I check next?
If the high beams still work? I would think it may be the head light switch or both low beam filaments in the bulbs are blown. That seems less likely though.
is this the same for the 2009 Chevy Trailblazer?
I was reading through the comments and should mention that we have already had the bulbs checked out and was told they did not need to be replaced. Do I need to check the fuses before spending time and effort and money on the HLDM?
Checking the fuses is a good thing to do. If both headlights are out. It's more than likely the HDM.
Your headlights have 2 fuses, 1 for left and 1 for the right. It would be odd for both of those fuses to be bad (blown) at the same time. It's more than likely the HDM.. :)
I have a question!! So I am obviously having this problem HOWEVER my low lights work on occasion (they will switch on and off randomly or come on sometimes and not others) do you think that is a greater issue than this simple fix? (Like a wiring problem?)
I would actually try this first. What you’re describing is not uncommon to the HDM starting to go dead. 😉
I have the same issue, but on a 1994 Chevy K1500 cant seem to trace the issue.
I have a 98 blazer when I start mine it's just the parking lights on and my high beam indicator is on but when I flick it it dosnt do anything also there is a clicking from Behind the glove box could it be a relay or the multi switch ?? Thanks
Twitch try replacing the relay. I would also look at emergency flasher relay too.
CheapGeek thanks is it behind the glovebox ?
u the man !
👍
Didn't help me so apparently possibly both of the bulbs that came in the new light housings I bought just plain old blew out but didnt hurt to try!!! 😂
Hopefully this is the issue and if so models also
LOL 1.2k likes to 18 dislikes... that's a hell of a ratio! Usually the trolls alone will do you worse than that! Haha, very helpful man :) thanks!
thanks , after see the video I gonna fix my headlights ...
+Andy andy Yay!
Gonna have to fix it myself even though I know nothing about cars
+Juan Nava Go for it!
Hopefully I don't mess up my dad's trailblazer. I have a tendency to break things. If all goes well I'll be driving at night by next Friday night.
+Juan Nava Just take your time..lots of videos out there and it's not too hard. :)
I have a 2007 Envoy. No low beams. I changed bulbs & fuses and still no low beams. Took it to the shop & he changed the switch inside on the dash, charged me $150 plus parts 🤬 and still NO low beams! I went out myself & changed the part you just showed and whatda know!!! I now have low beams! Sweet geeesh-us I just love how garages see a woman & screw me over🤬
I have a 2013 chevy equinox doing the same thing do you know where this part is on my chevy
I think its in the same place. In the fuse box under the hood.
I need this fix for my 07 Chevy Avalanche. =/
I also like peanut butter. P=
Dealership would have tripled the price of relay and charged 2 hours labor. Thanks a bunch!
Dealerships build 10 MILLION dollar buildings and not paying techs anything so the quality of service as suffered as a result.
i have been so frustrated with this same exact problem. I will be on the freeway and they turn off for 2-3min at a time... will be getting that fuse asap... have u had any issues since? was the the actual problem?
+Chris Walker nope, no problems afterwards. It was the HDM. It's been fine and so far so good. :)
Thanks you save my one week lunch money.
Hey guys I figured it out! I'm not trying to be funny but because it appeared that both low beam headlights went out at the same time I thought it was an electronical issue but it wasn't the case all I did was change the low beam headlights bulbs. After countless hours and buying the wrong things it was just the bulbs. SMH...lol
I replaced the relay for the headlamps, and still no lights. I checked the fuses, and bulbs, all good. I guess the next thing is to check continuity on the wiring?
Kevin Harvey-Barratt Have you checked the headlight switch?
@@CheapGeek To let you know how I made out... Yes, I checked the "Fog Lamp" Switch. I tried a new one and no luck. It turned out that both headlamp bulbs blew at the same time! When I originally pulled them out they looked fine. I refused to believe it was possible, but after swapping them both out, I have low beams again.
Kevin Harvey-Barratt wow! That’s weird. You wouldn’t think both at the same time. 😉
Hi Geek. I have a lightely different Problem.. the whole right headlight-unit of my 2003 TB is out of Order.. No lowbeam no daydriving light no anything but highbeam.. left side is working well anyway.. do you have an Idea what it could be? I'm from Germany and parts are a really spare thing and mostely imported high expensive. Btw : thank you and all of you in the US for making these Tutorials!.. i allready fixed by myself my front wheelbarings, the speedometer steppers and did the hellrace with aftermarket-stereo.. thank you so so much for your vidz!! Greets Daniel
I forgot: fuses are OK and i allready changed the hdm with the next to look the Operation..
Mychael your high beam is a separate light bulb from your daytime light and headlight. Have you replaced the bulb yet? You also have a separate fuse for left and right headlights ;)
hiho.. i just looked for the Bulbs..
actually low Beam AND Parkinglight bulbs are burned together. Thats really spare so i didnt believe that it could be the bulbs :/
but now other Prob.. Parking bulb is burned deep black so i cant read the Type.. can you tell me pls what kind of Tyoe i need??
again Thanx a lot!!
If only my driver-side low beam won’t turn on (after replacing bulb and fuse), could the HDM still be the problem?
You checked all the fuses? You also checked the lights front and rear? I don't think its the HDM. It could be a relay.
CheapGeek yes, every other light works like it should. If not the HDM, which relay would I need to take a look at?
Brian Spencer there’s typically a fuse or relay for the left and right low beams. They can be separate. Checked the fuse box behind the middle back seat?
CheapGeek Yeah, I’ve replaced the fuses for both low beams and checked the bulbs using the passenger side headlight (both bulbs work). I’m starting to think it’s a wiring issue with the connector for the bulb. By the way, thank you for the replies and help.
I need your help. On my 2008 Sierra Denali my low beams don't work. All the fuses work. I even switched that fuse/relay with my wife's Yukon. I'm out of ideas. Any other issues that could cause them to go out? Bulbs were changed too as a last resort.
+D G you switched out the headlight driver module?
CheapGeek : Yes sir, I pulled the one out of the Yukon to test it out. I even tried switching dimmer switch which was also listed as a culprit. So I'm stumped...
D G do the low beams work?
sorry meant to say do the high beams work.. as in. both?
No they don't work still. Highs work, parking lights work and fogs work. No low beams.
I have this same problem on my 03 Trailblazer the bulbs are good the fuses are good but when I replace the HDM module it doesn't do anything I bought the same one from Amazon from AC Delco can you help me out?
Did you ever figure out what was causing the issue? I am currently having this same issue. All fuses and relays are good, HDM is good. I have parklights, high beams, and turn signals. No low beams, I am going to try replacing the multifunction switch and see if that is the issue. Any additional input would be very helpful. Thanks!
The switch would be the next thing I’d check as well.
@@CheapGeek Did you get your low beams to work? I have same problem as you, thinking it might be a wiring issue.
Mine was the Headlight Driver Module.
@@CheapGeek I figured it out yesterday. The headlamps yellow wire was not sending ground. Not sure where the fault was so all l did was ground the right hdlmp pigtail directly to the chasis and that got my lights back. thanks for responding
What does that little module do besides make your lights work? I mean what is the benefit of that little box besides generating profit when it burns out :)
+James Morrin The module is used in conjunction with the daytime running lights. It pulses the lights on and off really fast- in order to reduce the voltage to 6 volts without burning out the headlights. I think.... :)
+Matthew55904 It won't work. It's a head light driver module. It's a solid state module that as acts as a pulse modulated relay
Nope. Not a relay. It's about 20 nicks more than a relay :)
Anyone have this issue? Troubleshooting options or suggestions welcome.
2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer LTZ
Driver’s side low-beam headlight issue over the last couple of years. Replaced bulb. Replaced fuse. Replaced solid state relay. All seemingly resolved the issue for a while. Using standard halogen bulbs for replacement.
As it is now, every time the vehicle is started, the driver’s side headlight does not illuminate. Upon touching/pulling/inserting the fuse, the headlight illuminates. Once on it stays on until the vehicle is turned off. If I leave the headlights on, shut off the engine & then restart the engine the headlights are still functional (like when fueling at night).
I tried replacing the solid state relay with automatic control again yesterday. No change in the performance of the headlight.
My best guess is the port is going bad on the integrated fuse relay box, approximately a $1000 fix.
Electrical issues can be expensive to troubleshoot. I’m really wanting full confidence that this is the issue before replacing the fuse relay box. Also, if anyone has done that themselves, please share that knowledge too.
Thanks in advance
okay ? i have this problem but my husband hits my dash and they go back to working...do you still think it needs a HDM as everything else is in working order (blubs✔,fuses✔) TIA
Jinny Fukuhara haha.. unless he's the hulk.. then maybe. :) more than likely somethings loose or the headight switch?
well he is pretty big but yes its like a temp fix...so i wanted to findout what should we do to make it a permanent fix
But we will try the switch Ty
Mine just keeps going out on the drivers side only
