Hello,

I have a 2003 Nissan Pathfinder (canadian model) with daytime running lights. It has 90,000 kms (56k miles) on it.

The passenger headlight has been acting weird, at first it was only the high beam that didn't work, low beam and daytime light would work.

And now recently it seems to be the low beam and high beam that don't work (still passenger side) but the daytime light still works.

And on the odd day, the passenger headlight would suddenly work perfectly.

Fuses and bulbs all checked out.

Is it the headlight switch or the daytime running module that's the problem?

Thanks in advance!

Any applicable fuses, did you check for voltage at the fuse circuit? You might wiggle the headlamp connector. Any applicable codes? For the headlamp wiring, the wire that comes off the bottom, note diagram, Is voltage for headlamps. The two wires off the top are ground, depending on bright or dim. That's the way I understand it. With intermittent issues, all I can do is hunt and peck. I thought there might be a code for headlamp control, couldn't find anything.
