head light mistery
 
last nite my passinger side headlight stopped working, only that little bulb inside is light up.
i figured its just the bulb, so bought a new one this morning and installed it,...same thing, no light.
high beams work good on both sides, but low beam nothing.
i checked the fuse under the dash, and swapped left with right, and still no luck.
i fiddled with the wires a little, just alittle left and right movement hoping it was bad connection around there, but still nothing.

anyone have any suggestions?

Are you putting the bulb in the right spot? Theres no real diagram to the bulbs.

turns out that the yellow clip that holds the connector on the car was loose, so when the headlight ws locked it gets pushed ot and looses contact.

fixed :)

I'm having this same problem right now.

Passenger side low beam.

I swapped fuses, bulbs, jiggled every wire I could see, the pins on the headlight are tight, the connector on the car is tight.

:barf:

Anyone have any ideas?

All other lights work on the passenger side, including side marker.
