Two days ago I am driving my car from the airport and turn on my headlights. Wouldn't you know it, the Drivers side didn't light up, but the passenger side was fine. But when I had my lights in the ON position, the turn signal on the burnt out side wouldnt light up also, my fog light on the burnt out driver side was much dimmer than normal.

Now yesterday, I get in my car in the morning and turn my lights on for the hell of it. And everything was fine.

Now this morning I go to turn the lights on and its back to the same old way, No drivers side headlight and no turn signal when I have the lights in the ON position.
But when I turn the lights off, the turn signal works fine????????


I suck at wiring problems, especially without a schematic.

What can it be??

 

Mine did exactly the same thing a couple times. Loose connection?

 

I been doing alot of searching and was hearing alot about the Ballasts and Ignitor, blah blah.

And I flicked them on and off a couple times this morning and it still didnt work.

Ravin, where did you look to find the loose connection. What exactly would I be looking for??

 

Ha, I guess I mean Ravi, I carried the "N" over from NJ. My bad...

 

my 03-cl-s6 does the same thing, but only with the headlight, not the turn signal, etc. my passenger headlight will not turn on the 1st time I turn on my lights but almost always comes on after trying a 2nd time, although on rare occasions it takes 3-4 times before it pops on. I'm guessing it is a loose wire or something but I have yet to have it looked at.

 

Unfortunately, from what I have read Austin Taper, yours fits the problem of the Ignitor/Ballast problem.

You might want to get that looked at if you're still under warranty, Its like a 500 dollar fix.

As for mine, I figure it has to be a wiring problem because of the turn signal and dimming of fog light.
