Headlight and directional signal not functional

[tommy24689]

Greetings,

I just purchased my first 2001 Porsche Boxster S last month. The car is a joy to drive, however the passenger side headlight has blown twice; and the directional signal on the same side has also blown.

The headlight was replaced and it was functional for about 5 hours of drive-time. I replaced the directional signal (with two separate bulbs) and I have not observed it function since it went out a few weeks after I purchased the vehicle.

I used a small amount of bulb grease when replacing the bulbs, and validated that the bulbs matched the driver side as well. I checked the fuses and they are also good.

Does anyone have any ideas what may be causing this?

I am in Charlotte, NC and looking for assistance.

Please advise,



Thomas
