    Exclamation i have a strange headlight problem. help please.

    This is the strangest thing I have ever seen. When I turn on my headlights in my 88 accord PCI the passenger side low beam works but not the drivers side. When I turn on the high beams the drivers side works but not the passenger side. I switched the lights and got new ones and have the same problem on the same sides. I checked the fuses and checked to see if the plugs were getting power to them on both settings. I have no clue what to do next. Please help.

    Just to clarify, there is a fuse for each light (4) also the harness can rub thru where the wires go thru the radiTor support. The blade terminals at the light can break off and the combo switch connections under the steering wheel can get loose.
    Check that ground circuit is proper too, lights can ground off just the load of another light so that can make intermitant and strange issues.
