Long story short. 2018 kenworth T680. Plug to headlight housing was rotted away. Lowbeam light not working but turn and high work. Is it posible to at least run a wire to something to get the lowbeam to work

It's probably a warranty item. Ask your company what they want you to do. My company would probably have me take mine to a dealer.

Yes it is possible, but doing it will void warranty and if done wrong could cause bigger problems. As Scott said it should be a warranty item, you should contact your company they will probably have you take it to a dealer.

I agree with Big Scott on this. I'm a "throw duct tape on it and get back to work" kind of guy, but you should certainly check with your company before splicing in a wire on their truck. If they give you the green light, then yeah there is probably a way to patch in a wire. Try changing the bulb first though if you haven't already.
