my sidelights work fine as does the main beam on my 1999 freelander but normal headlights dont work on the nearside.

i have changed the bulb - but no difference, i have checked with a voltmeter and the nearside is getting the same as the off side which makes me assume that the power is there. i have bent the contacts a little in theclip which attaches to the bulb to ensure contact - no change

what can it be ? i can only think its the attachment to the bulb - anyone had this before or can help ?

Had this on a 300tdi - and ABS light wouldn't go off neither when it happened. Bad earth! Ran a new earth lead to chassis from earth terminal; cured headlight and ABS light at same time!
 
sorry bit of a novice - how do i check the earth or is it just a case of running an extension from another working earth to check if the light comes on ?
