Low Beams Not Working

Asked by hansendix Feb 27, 2018 at 03:50 PM about the 2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand Touring

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Low Beams Not Working
Hi, I just bought an '08 Grand Touring 6-speed
manual and the first time I drove at night I noticed
both low beams only illuminated about 40' out.
Both are equally powerful and equally aligned (or
misaligned). At 40' there is a definite, straight,
horizontal demarcation line between light and
dark. The high beams are perfect. The car is too
dangerous to drive at night. I know this probably
doesn't relate but seller just replaced battery so car
had no electrical for a little while. Is there anything
on the car that would have to be reset after that?
Can anybody help? Thank you in advance.
