afs headlights

i have the 05 rl in which i know had issues with the driver side light not staying on well i changed the ballast and the harness inside but for some reason this damn light turns on and after a few minutes it turns off again and its only on the right side i also checked the connector to make sure i was getting power and it was i checked the pins inside connector to make sure nothing was broken or loose but nothing its still doing the same thing i finally decided to check the wiring but i wanted to get some ideas and opinions before i go thru that long process

have you tried swapping igniters and bulbs and ballast from left headlight to right to see if the issue still persists?

headlight issue

yes i have tried i replaced the ballast thinking in the beginning it was that it worked for a little while and then did the same thing again i replaced the igniter and i believe the bulb also only thing i didnt replace was the afs motor that moves the light but i see it moves so im not sure its bad if all else fails i guess i will have to try and trace back the wires and see where they go its possible its broken or shorted somewhere but i see that is a job in itself in which i dont have alot of time now so again i am hoping for some answers to the problem i know the 05 rl had problems on the right light and i believe the 06 or 07 had it on the left i need help with this??? im also trying to recalibrate and relearn the vsa and awd since i replaced the pump brakes still work but not the way they should anyone have any idea or possibly the software to service this

I would do what thoiboi suggested and swap the good side to the bad side and see if the problem stays in place or if it follows the parts you moved.
