Need help with driver side headlight

Hey guys i have a problem with my light, My light went out and i went to go get a new light bulb and that didnt even turn on, it only turns on with my hi beams on, also i notice when i turn my high beams on the passenger light goes dim and my driver side light is on hi beam but when i turn off the high beam the passenger light is normal but the driver side light is off[IMG]/forums/images.old/smilies/mad.gif[/IMG]. Not even the fog lights turn on and they are new lights. What could be the problem? thanks guys

A failing dimmer relay might cause this problem. Also putting wrong headlight bulb in or not fully seating might cause some funny problems.

A failing combination switch might cause the fog lights not to come on, but hard to see how this could produce the alternate bright/dim headlight combinations.

good luck

Clean the plug. It should be a bad ground.
