All other lights on car work. Fuses all good.
My near side headlamp will not work. I have switched the bulb out and still nothing. When I swap the headlight holders both headlights do not work.
I have replaced the headlight switch with no luck.
Any ideas?

Hey Pete,

It looks like there are some headlight modules and amplifiers. Here are some wiring diagrams which show you what to look for. Test for power and then tracy it back until you find where the power is lost.

Please run some tests and get back to us so we can continue helping you.

Best, Ken
