Passenger side head light goes out.

Months back when we were at the track, Alan noticed that my Passenger side Headlight was out. I figured it was burnt and needed to be replaced. Then I noticed that same day that it was on again, so I didn't pay anymore attention to it.

Recently, I noticed that if I run my lights for a few minutes and then turn them off and on again, the passenger side will not come back on.

I'm guessing that when it cools down, it goes back to normal again. Is it the bulb that's has an issue or is it the Ballast?

Interestingly enough, my passenger side signal light has also been out for a while, which causes the rear signal light to blink twice as fast. This has been like this for a few months now. A while after it began doing this, my driver side also when out. So I thought it was the bulb and I needed to get another set. About a week ago, the driver side came back. I know that it's not the case of loose bulb because that was the first thing I checked. What else could it be???

My driver side fogs seem to do that too. Been meaning to have a look at it but just don't have the time right now. Its most likely wiring or fuse short somewhere. Also could be a bad computer module that controls the lighting of the FX.

I had that problem before while the car was in warranty and the dealer said it was due to bad socket. Maybe that can be a reference when you have time to check your car out. :.smile:
 
Yes, I know it is a bad socket I have play around with the wires a bit to make it stable. I have not looked into replacing the socket yet but may have to eventually.
