Driver side headlight works fine


Passenger side headlight only works for hi beam, not low beam


Also neither fog light works (yellow lights between the headlights and the grill).


Have change what the correct fuse (I think) and still have this problem.


Any ideas / suggestions??
Thanks in advance for your help!!

Well if you have one headlight that works then you can eliminate the fuse problem. If it is the fuse, then all would be dead. On the lights that are out, (not working) use a little $5.00 test light and see if you are getting power where the wiring and the bulbs meet. If the power is there, obviously it is a bulb problem. The fog lights are not "sealed beam" type either, and have replaceable bulbs, I am quite sure. But anyway, a simple 12v test lamp will show you where the problem is.

I did replace the passenger side bulb so it is brand new.


So definitely not a fuse issue?
