Which fuse runs the high beams.
If I can't get this fixed I'm seriously thinking of adding some bright off road lights to my car for extra lighting.
The same fuse does both high and low beam for each side. Make sure the high beam filament is not burned out on both bulbs. Also, have someone else click the stalk between high and low beam and listen to the little relay box behind the headlight on the passenger side for the relay to click as the lights are switched back and forth.

Would the high beam system stop working if even just 1 filament is burned out?
Do you know which fuse runs the H/L headlights?

Both side high beam filaments would have to be burned out for both side high beams to be not working.

The H-LP RH and H-LP LH fuses feed the right and left sides respectively.

Seeing them doesn't matter, often-times.

About three years ago, coming home late after a meeting far away...I was on a secondary road. And out comes a deer...I was doing about fifty and saw him immediately.

Road was open so I swerved left. He also veered; he was running at a steep angle to me. And he'd have been all right except he stopped and turned his head to look. I took his head off at 25 mph.

It was a light enough hit that the airbags didn't go off. Hell, it didn't even slow me down much; just a loud THUNK. There was no light and little shoulder and I didn't have any tools to put the deer out of his misery, if that was called for, so I kept going until I got to a lit crossroads.

The fender was driven back about three inches and crumpled; jammed into the door. The door was damaged with the black plastic low at the base of the window, forward, busted off. The headlight was broken off its mountings and hanging by wires. And the bumper fascia was bloodied and torn.

Twenty-five miles an hour. And I saw the bugger and couldn't do anything.

Yep. Many years ago my grandparent's next door neighbor hit a large buck on the way home one night. The road to their neighborhood is winding and has a golf course on both sides. The buck darted across the road and he had no hope of avoiding it. He was driving one of those old Pontiac Bonneville station wagons...the biggest one ever made. That accident rendered the station wagon a 'total'.

The Yaris is already setup so when you pull the stalk, both hi and low beam are on, but if you push it, then only the highs are on.
