Yes, a fuse or relay wouldn't cause only a single bulb to be out. Suggest having the dealership check this out, this should still fall under your 3/36 basic warranty, they may need to replace the socket.

All you have to do is jump power from the passenger headlight to the driver headlight by splicing the low beam wire. That's all I did on my 2006 Ram 2500 and have not had a problem yet and only cost me the price of an about 4ft piece of wire and 2 wire nuts.

I used a relay with a trigger wire from the other headlight. Then ran a power feed through a fuse to the relay then to the driver side headlight. ($15 vs$800 repair) I am doing research now to replace the TIPM with a good old fuse box.

All you have to do is have someone who has a Diagnostic Scanner and clear the codes stored in the Body Control Module. If codes are present it will shut the circuit down til fixed.

GuruZ8PDT —-> so let me see if I’m understanding this correctly, when I turn the headlights on and everything else comes on accept the low beam bulbs your saying I have to have it hooked up to a Diagnostic Scanner and have my codes cleared because the circuit for the low beams is jammed ? And once I clear the codes my low beams will work

I just fixed my 2004 ,right low beam was a bad connection between the front power module and fuse box or tipm. Removed the module from fuse box and fed power thru pin #1 into fuse box and light works . Cleaned and bent pin a little on module and plugged back in and it works !

my power wagon is in the same situation ...one head light out drivers side... the truck had this issue not 2 months ago, but the entire drivers side lights and tail lights were out...it was 500.00 to change out the entire fuse box, this was only made this way for 2004 and 2005, sucks... now the turck its still in the shop, for 3 weeks... they have to find the right box or your truck wont start up.. dodge should have a way to fix this, my truck has less then 150K miles on it... very pissed...love dodge, hate this shit!

I have 2003 2500 dodge cummins, both headlights turn off intermittently from 5-30 seconds then come back on, I have checked both batteries and the alternator are good, I changed the switch on the dash to with no love, I do have a code for the battery temp sensor on my scanner but no trouble lights on the dash I cleared the code but no help. could it be this sensor? I'm almost at my troubleshooting limit prior to taking it to a shop. All other lights operate correctly inside and out. Any help is appreciated. Thank you
