    I have a 2010 Prius II without HID headlights. Recently I've been having an issue that the low beams wont turn on at times. Sometimes they will and other times it wont. Today they turn on but are dim. Any idea what the problem could be?

    Check the connectors at the bulbs? Then the one from harness to harness, behind the bumper cover, forward of the left front wheel well? If not solved, get a meter and go from there?
