Are both headlights blown out? You never know.

You should be following wiring from the headlights back to see where to power is first detected.

Check the dimmer switch. Start by messing with that plug down there and see if anything changes. I highly suspect you will find a bad dimmer switch or an issue with the wiring down there.

I would also check the dimmer switch. I would then check the headlamp plugs for power using a test light or meter.

A test lamp or multimeter is your friend..... but if I had to guess, I'd say the dimmer switch (or its connector).

Look at the head lights connectors first. Make sure they haven't come off are broken. If I remember the passenger side feeds off the drivers side. if they are good then check dimmer as mentioned. A test light would be nice to have at least.:chevy:

Most likely the dimmer switch is the culprit when the headlights are the only thing that doesn't work.
