Headlight Issue

[icydude]

As of right now i am having a headlight issue.

The car is a r32 gtst.

The intake side headlight wont turn on, high beam or low beam but the dim bulb still comes on, fog lights still come on as well when i hit the switch.

I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to where i should look first for my problem.

I have checked the fuses twice, i tried a new bulb as well. Wires on the plug are tight and still look good.

A number of months back it would sometimes not turn on when i started the car but giving the light a swift hit with my hand would sometimes turn it on.

Lights are non projector.

check where the plug actually contacts the globe. could be loose or broken or dirty im thinking

From your last statement, you may have oxidation on the terminal.

If that's so, you can buy some spray (eg from JayCar or Dick Smith Power) and spray the connection points before re-installing the bulb. You might also spray the wire ends in the loom too whilst you're at it.

Otherwise...

Just like dozens of others.

Clean the switch.
