its a 90 suburban.. any ideas?? i have tried what i know i have no clue thanks
 
Battery hooked up?

Turn on the lights, run a wire from the negative post to the ground wire of one of the headlights and see if it lights.

If it does, you still have a bad ground somewhere.

If not, if you have a meter, unplug one of the headlights, test between the hot lead and the negative post of the battery.

No power? Then you probably pinched a wire when you replaced the support and have blown a fusible link or fuse.
 
i've got them new fancy perpetual headlights..... :woot:

Mike, it's probably the main grd on the pass side...

Ryoken is talking about the little pigtail from the negative battery cable that goes to the core support.
