ohhh..hmm..sounds like the headlights are a possibilty..maybe a loose connection?, if they only get brighter when the alternator is going faster

 

the thing is they were working perfectly the bulbs are new and there both really dim the head lights just messed up i put a new one in today because it blew one out yesterday. yesterday they were bright like normal i tried not to step on it but i down shifted and blew a bulb.

 

hmm..stupid question but are you sure they are the right bulbs? lol

 

Yes they are the right ones i only changed the driver side the passanger side didnt burn out but know they both are really dim they worked good for about an hour after i changed the bulb. then i shut off the car and started it a half n hour later thats when the head lights messed up

 

I guess their could be a wire loose or a relay messed up but i would still have a look at the alternator.

 

i am gonna take off the alternator tommarrow and test it...and see what happens.

 

alright well let us know

 

the whole downshifting makes you blow a bulb makes it sound like something else than the alt. How high would you say you were reving it? I agree with noscope about the wires or relays.

 

i was going 60-65 in 5th then down shifted to 3rd right when i down shifted it blew. there is no rpm gauge.

 

That would have thrown it into the higher rpm range say 8 or above but thats just a guess
