I changed battery in my Saab and now my driver's side headlight won't work. Had the light switch replaced still not working. Why did changing the battery cause this, and what can I do to get it working again. Check the fuse box and fuses look good.

It might just be a coincidence that your headlight bulb went out when you changed the battery. Check the wiring/ mounting of the bulb and make sure that it is solid without any issues. Swap it out with a new one and you should be set.
