Default Dim Headlamp

One of my headlamps is very dim whilst on normal beam.Its not the bulb and the wiring connectors seem fine but both headlamps are fine on main beam.
Anyone had a similar problem? Maybe I have a bad earth on that lamp or maybe I just need to replace the reflector?

Thanks

Steve

Change the whole lamp unit. It does wonders for the look of the car and they are relatively cheap.
then dont kid yourself with the 911 lighting, its not great.

buy a full xenon H4 dual beam kit (not a ****ty branded halogen bulb) look on ebay - should cost you about $300 ish.

They are sooooooooooper dooooper

each bulb filiment has its own fused circuit so 4 stock bulb circuits. The fuse and fuse holder is a common failure point.


btw "normal beam" is low beam
"main beam" is high beam
I assume
