Thread: Head light not working

Just noticed this today. Drivers side head light is not working. Bought a bulb, hooked it up and nothing happened. While I was thinking, "why the hell is this thing not working" I noticed that the conector is burnt a little bit. I also noticed some of the wires for the plug are taped up with duct tape. Do you guys think this is the problem? Here are some pictures of what I am talking about.

And the answer is no, I did not tape those wires with duct tape. The guy who owned this car before me did that.

Go to autozone and pick up a plug for $3

They sell them? The conector, right?

Dang that must have got hot to burn the connector like that! Yea go scoop up a connector and you should be good to go!

Nice, thanks guys. Do they really sell these at auto zone?

f*&k it......go HID!

I'd like to do that. Just can't do it right now, I just want to fix this so I can drive at night.

Even if he was to go with HID's he would still need a working connector, well at least a working driver side one (which is the side doesn't work )



I'm freaking serious dude, Autozone, Advance Auto, etc. they sell the 9004/9007 connectors. Granted you will have to crimp or soldering it on, but that's no biggie

Great, I will pick one up. I wasn't doubting you at all. I just thought this would be one of those special order deals, or a dealer only part.

Well I bought the plug from auto zone, $4.99 and I'm good to go. I wire it in and still nothing. Check the fuse and it's burnt, changed that out and were in business. So I think it was the fuse all this time. Still that plug was fubar, now at least I have a new fresh plug installed.
Thanks Vadim, you are .
