    I'm stumped. Both low beams not working. I replaced one bulb 6 months ago, the other is original. Odd that they would both quit the same day. Swapped in a new bulb. Nothing. Checked the relays and switched low beam relay with fog lamp relay. Fog lamps still work. High beams work. Checked both fuses and they are good.

    Not getting power? Possible but maybe a loose ground wire? Where would that be on a 2007 GT?

    Thanks for any suggestions. Days are getting shorter and I have to get this fixed.

    I bet the HDM module died, pretty common.

    Is the HDN module the relay?

    I switched the relays and that didn't help. I googled and that relay did seem to be a common problem but I'm not sure it's mine. If the module is something else, please let me know. The only other part of the link is the light switch on the steering wheel stalk. I always leave my lights on auto. Parking, fog and high beams all work from the stalk, but not low beams.

    HDM module is like a relay, it's black I think but a weird 5 pin unlike the rest that are 4 pins under the hood.

    Swapping relays will not work as they don't work the same way as the HDM one does.

    My deepest thanks, FFDP. It was the HDM. My family thinks I'm a genius for fixing it in 5 minutes (after trying for two days). I told them I had help.
    Your prompt response to my problem is very much appreciated.

    Let me know if you want to replace those bulbs at some point with a nice HID conversion kit. Glad to hear you got them working!
