Default High beams not working but high beams indictor comes on

Well I had my 04 Crossfire for 1 and a half now but after some time of use the high beams wouldn’t turn on but the indicator turns on whenever I take out the bulbs but when I put new bulbs the indicator won’t come on unless there’s no bulbs connected which could be an electrical problem but I will double check fuses but any idea what it could be ?

Did you find out a solution to this? I just got my 2004 Coupe, just found out the high beams don't work, but my indicators on the dash does.

Since this forum has been up and running for 18+ years, this may have been discussed at least once or twice in the past 18 years?
How about using the SEARCH button at the top of the front page and entering "High Beams" and hit the GO button.
You would be
surprised at what you can find in the archives....

Is the car running when you are testing this? Reason I ask is that they won't turn on if it is not running.

I could not say what was correct, so I went to the garage.At least I know now, until I forget of course.

Yes, that is what I did, I searched and found no other thread that matched my high-beam issue exactly except this one. Luckily this person had the exact same issue (high beams don't function but the indicator does) and last posted on this thread 8 months ago, and I decided to reply back to him and see if he found a resolution.

He replied back and we are continuing the conversation. Which I think is better than create a new thread?

You say indicators but there is only one blue indicator for the high beam.
Maybe the bulbs are NFG, I had headlight bulbs on both sides blow in the space of a week.
Maybe the fuses are blown.
‘Look for the simple answer first’ is a good motto.
