Default headlight fuse or relay

ok my buddy has a 94 gt and his headlights have stopped working. his daytime running lights (canada has them) still come on but when we turn on the lights they dont come on. not sure why. is there a fuse or relay that controls the headlights? also when he clicks on his highbeams the blue hightbeam light does not come on. any ideas??

you'll need a test light for this portion now and you need to test for current on the r/y wire from main light switch to the multifunction switch on the column and in the on position=main light switch on the LG/BK wire comming out of the multi-function switch you should have 12v.....if you have 12v on r/y wire to multi function switch but not on lg/bk out of multi func switch = bad multi func switch ...pull the switch back = flash to pass and see if that makes brites flash....this just means that side of the switch works..don't get excited if it does..it does not mean switch is good cause it has 2 seperate circuits for lights and flash to pass......you could of course go out to headlights and unplug connector and see if you have current on the r/bk wire all this will tell you is if there is potential for light operation..once both my bulbs went out at same time so check easy stuff first..and when performing all tests make sure headlights/switch is in on position

if i pull back on the signal switch to make the highs flash they dont, so im thinking it may be in that switchand if i pull on the lights on switch the dash lights and park lights come on. now how hard is it to get the signal switch out cause i have a 99 gt and i may take the one out of mine and see if it works. if not at least ill know its not that switch.
