Default Camaro DRL

Not sure if this is in the right place, so I appoligize. My passanger side DRL on my 2000 Camaro is dimmer than the dirvers side. Has anyone else experinced this? I wasn't able to get the lens out of the car, but I did use water and a paper towel to clean the inside of it, didn't fix it. I also replaced the bulb, but still seems dim. Please help me with this....it bugs the hell out of me

Check the voltage. Any specific electrical drain on the car?

No drain at all. I've had the car for 2 years, never changed the battery. Has started up fine since day one. What should the voltage read?

Check the electrical section of the forum and see what the guys say there. Electrical is a nightmare for me, yet my uncle is an electrician, go figure. Good luck.

I remember i replaced the bulb on my 99 z28 with a newer clear one. I later noticed it was dimmer than the other. I eventually changed that bulb back to one that was yellow in color and my issue was resolved..
