Headlight malfunction after swapping bulbs
Hi everyone, hoping someone can point me at the right direction before I start throwing money at all the various components.
I swapped both low beams in my 08' E61 today because the passenger side went out. I replaced both driver and passenger because I wanted to upgrade to 6000k.
Now my passenger side is working again, but the drivers side is not. I tried swapping in the other functioning bulbs as well got nothing....
Any suggestions? Ballast, controller, housing, fuses?
Thanks

Check the wires it could be cracking and touching each other shorting it out. It is a common issue tape it up with electric tape.
