Mahindra 4540
Just bought my first Mahindra 2 weeks ago, a 2016 4540. Headlights don't work, plow light does come on however. I checked the fuses for the headlights, low beam 15 amp and high beam 15 amp and they are both good. From what I've read it is probably the switch maybe? 407 hours on the machine.

Can you get to the electrical connector on your light switch? If yes check for power coming to the switch. If no power coming to the switch, you have an issue with wherever power comes from. If you have power coming into the switch, temporarily use a jumper wire(s) to send power to your headlights. If using the jumper wires turn on your headlights, then most likely your switch is bad. But do not overlook the simplest issues and check for power at the headlights. Stranger things have happened than both bulbs going bad at nearly the same time.

I agree to Coy. Electrical 101 says first of all check your connections!
