Driver Side low beam out, firebird, sealed beam is good All right, I have searched the FAQs for this and if I missed it, im sorry, please point me in the right direction.
When I first bought this car the DS low beam would flicker intermitenly, so I replaced the sealed beam. No problem, working great for 6 months. The other night, the DS low beam is out again, no flickering, just out. So I buy a new bulb and I put it in this morning. NOTHING. There still is no power to the light. All others work fine, Highs, lows, and fogs, just the DS low is out.
I begin to check all the fuses/relays and the fuses are good, didnt see relays for headlights, so what the hell could it be? The wiring looks fine, nothing crimped or exposed in the limited amount I could see.
I remember when I was shopping for a TA, one of the vehicle I was looking at, had this exact problem, but it was 3 years older and had higher mileage. The guy said he replaced the sealed beam and the wiring harness, checked all fuses and still couldnt figure it out.
Is this a reoccuring problem? Anyone have any ideas?
