Single headlight not working

Right, i know someone will probs say use the search etc but i have tried and couldnt find anything so hopefully someone will be nice

My right headlight doesnt work but does when its on full beam, before i replace the light does this sound like a problem with the bulb or the wiring?

i have had alot of trouble with wiring so thats why im asking !

Yes

Always start with the simple stuff.

- Check fuses - each lamp is fused independently of the other

- Remove headlamp - check bulb & check connector

- If OK, check inner wing earth

- If OK, check wiring for breaks

id say earth fault, clean the earth point , think its in the inner wing, but it will only work if the bulb is good

have you even looked at the bulb? depending on what you have fitted, a h4 you can just look at and see if its blown, if yer on sealed beams still, you will need a multimeter.

Lamp would be the first stop, THEN look at the other stuff

what a lazy! Have a look first.

I had this problem, just turned out to be corroded wiring connectors in the wing, easy to sort
