Headlight question...



Then my question becomes this:  what could the previous owner have 
cut/modified to screw up the way the headlights work?  I'm looking for a way 
to fix this, and since it probably used to work right, I figure there's a 
wire to a relay he cut or something...  Me removing the fog light relay 
wouldn't have anything to do with it, though, right?
