Hi Guys

I have a problem with my left side main lamp dimmer sometimes it doesn't on when putting it on dimmer and with high beam on it works fine sometime i had to open the bonnet and push or pull the connector to glow that left side main bulb, when it works if i put it off and then put it back it doesn't glow sometime,
without doing nothing sometimes it glows automatically and if you off the switch and put it back most of the time it doesn't glow what you guys think is it loose connection or something else with my main bulb ?

thanks
regards

Try a different bulb then it's probably a bad earth wire or a break in a wire for them. I had similar issues with elecs recently.

That's a bad connection. If you push/pull the headlight connector and it starts working, it is slight corrosion on the contacts.

Get some electrical contact cleaner. Spray both the metal connectors on the headlamp and the metal parts inside the connector. That should solve it.

Then smear a very very small amount of dialectric grease on the headlamp terminals to protect them. Don't get any grease on the glass of the lamp.

Hi Guys

I found that it is faulty main bulb which doesn't on even when the voltage is there until it becomes little hot , so i changed the bulb with my other car light now ok no problem so far .

Excellent. Driving after dark is once again possible.
