Starting about 2 weeks ago my headlights would get brighter when i gave it gas. when i noticed it i reved it up and a head light burnt out. then yesterday i down shifted to pass a semi then another headlight went out i replaced today drove 2 miles with the lights on nothing happend. went to leave 30 min later lights turn on a tiny bit could bearly tell they were on. inside the car said the brights were on but they werent when i tried to turn them on they turned on and it made a tiny bit of a difference. but the car starts fine i dont think the battery is bad the light inside the car is bright too. any ideas on what it is? please need help fast I deliver food. I need my car please help

 

IT might be your alternator or distributer
Do you have a sound system in the car?

 

sounds like an alternator to me :hsdunno:

 

No i do not have a sound system. But do you know why the light would be so dim it is almost as if they were off. but the light inside the car is bright? why would the light be like that?

 

I changed the distributer last year

 

Has the alternator ever been replaced?

 

no it hasnt but that could make the light that dim? the car starts no problem the battery has charge. but the head light are very dim. i am gonna change the alternator tomarrow to see if that fixes the problem could the alternator cause the head lights to be very dim if the battery still has charge?

 

because the headlights use a lot more power than the inside lights

 

true but it seems like it did not affect anything else electronicly beside the headlights that is why i said that

 

It could be that the alternator is getting ready to fail and the headlights are about the only thing on the car that realy pulls from the alternator
