Headlight Problem

So when i turn on my headlight the passenger side flickers before coming on,
sometimes it flickers and doesnt come on at all..

anyone know what i need to replace, im assuming its the ignitor.

swap the bulbs passenger to driver side and see if its bulb or other prob
Gen2 is the right age to need replacement bulbs

i dont think its the bulb, the light is fully on at times then it will just turn off but then the next night it will work again or blink before working

yea i have the same problem. my passenger headlight randomly will go out while im driving. itll come right back on when i switch them off and back on. i replaced both bulbs last year so im pretty sure its not the bulb. a week ago i took apart the entire headlight and put it back together just to see if there was some loose connection somewhere and at first i thought that was it cuz it didnt go out at all for the next few days but it just started doing it again recently someone help!
