LIGHTS

both my lights went out. one day they just didnt work. i checked the fuses and they are all fine. the high beams still work though but when i turn them on the high beam indicator does not turn on. could it be the bulbs or something electric that went wrong?

I think that the High Beam indicator being out is the key:

The High Beam indicator light gets power, whether the bulb filament is open or closed.

The 10A fuse (1:H-LP LH/H-LP LO LH) in the under-hood fuse box is the feed to it, as well as to the left side high/low beam filaments.
Check that fuse, although if it were bad, on the left, both high and low beam would be out...

Its ground path is through the ED contact on the Headlight Dimmer Switch (the stalk). I would suspect it (the headlight dimmer switch) as being the most likely cause of the issue.
