Really, really low Beams. Any ideas?
 

Guys. I'm puzzled. Got in my Boxster this morning early and drove down the street thought I forget to turn my lights on. They were indeed on. Got out to take a look. it looked like two low-burning candles -- like they were 10% on. High beams are perfect. Had to drive to work using them

Didn't sense any battery-related issues anywhere in performance. Any ideas? Much appreciated!

Check your fuses first, if ok, then check the amperage going to the light socket. Very well could be the light switch.

start checking the basics in the electrical system...batt voltage etc....

I'm guessing but....
 

failing all else there must be a relay that controls the high and low beams. That relay may be faulty, where it is located I do not know.

Odd that is is both lights at once that are dim, I have seen cases where a car comes in with no brake lights. All sorts of checks are done when the first thing that should have been done is check the BULBS. I've seen many a car come in with both brake lights burned out.

Use the KISS Principle " Keep It Simple Stupid" .... don't make it harder than it is.

Good luck,
