Default lighting issues.Please Help!

Hey guys my lights on my c6 will not turn on right now but my high beams work. I am in the parking lot of my work on my laptop trying to figure out why. Even if i switch the lights from auto to manual nothing will happen. Is it really likely both lights burnt out? Any info would be really helpful right now

The low beams have individual fuses but they share a common mini-relay.

It's #47 in the fuse box in the engine compartment.

Unfortunately, I don't know for sure if the 7 mini-relays are interchangeable, but don't mess with #43 or #44, the others are wiper/defogger related.

I would guess that you could safely swap them around but I'd try to find some matching part numbers on the relays first.

If the relay is good, it could be the switch in the stalk.
