Hi. I have a 1989 Porsche 928 and have a problem with one of the headlamps. The low beam on the headlamp on the right hand side does not work. I installed a new bulb....and thought it would fix the problem I was surprised that with the new bulb the low beam on the one side still doesn't work? The high beam works find on both sides, but when I switch to the low beam, only the left hand side works. Has any one else had this problem? Any suggestions?
Thanks

Check Fuse #39

I have the same problem with my high beam on the passenger side. I have checked fuses and changed headlight but still no go. Is there a relay or something that can go which would affect only the high beam?

Also check the bulb connectors for corrosion and/or burning on the pins of the connector.

check fuse holder for corrosion, even if the fuse seems ok

Yes, sometimes only one pin will have a little build up on it and the other will not. And as Dave said check the bulb connectors real good also.

Thanks for your help!!!
I checked the fuse again and noticed that the ends of the fuse had corrison on them.
Replaced the fuse with a new one and.....voila...the lights work.

Lesson learned....even if the fuse looks good, check for corrison.

thanks again.....Rennlist is GREAT!
