Driver's side headlight out

AleroDrime · 12-18-2009, 11:58 PM

Hey I doing some cleaning and maintenance today and figured i'd do the DRL delete by putting electrical tape over the pin on relay 22, my aleros a 2003 and there was only 4 prongs on the relay, but we poped it apart and identified which of the 4 was to be covered from the cardboard method thread. But my friend said both were still on. So i decide to forget it and remove the tape and put the relay back, now my driverside low beam isnt working. I checked the bulb, it looks fine, fuses 50 and 51 are ok too, Im baffeled about what to do.

Happens sometimes. Scot car did this when he tried it.

Is your SVS light on?

Simple fix...reverse what you did

i did and thats when it started, funny thing is itll start to work for a bit if i twisted it and start to pull it out the headlight, wiggling the wires with out pulling it out seems to have no effect
