OK everyone I have a 2005 XC90 that has both low beams dim. I am pretty sure that both low beams did not go out at the same time which leads me to something electrical. I have already pulled the 20amp fuses and they both look good so now I am at a loss.

Anybody else have this problem or might no another electrical location to look?

Thanks in advance.

I think the headlights are on seperate fuses, so that's likely not the issue. Are you sure they are aimed right? Are they getting old, maybe they just need to be replaced?

good call. i would just replace them. the ones in my family, they just replace them. only one of them had this problem, and if i remember correctly, the housing was faulty and it was causing the bulbs to misalign. hope that helps.
