Need some help with a headlight problem.
Yesterday it was shown to me that the right side (passenger side) head light was out. I tried the high beam and that works. Also turned on the fog lights and they are out too. Soooo, I go ahead and buy the bright $19 X 2 head lights and have the same problem, no right low beam or fog lights.
I have jiggled all of the wires that I can find, checked and cleaned the contacts of the head light plug and harness plug behind the right head light, fuses are good. What am I missing here?

Did you test the fuse? They can look good and still be bad. The right headlight and foglights get there power from the rt headlight part of the circuit. You may have a headlight switch going out as well.

I have long lost the paper inside of the fuse box cover. Can you tell me the number of the headlight fuse? Are there two fused for the headlights?

IIRC, it's fuse #11. Yes the headlights are fused independent of each other. I'm looking for a pic of the yellow fuse card.

rrgrassi is correct, #11 16 amp, red. May need to pull and inspect ends.

That was it! Thanks for the help, I was not liking the $86 price for the switch from ***********************.
I guess the old headlight is still good. Great, another spare...something for the car! But, I am looking forward to the drive to work in the morning with the brighter lights. I could still use the fuse list if anyone has it. Thanks again for the help.
