Headlight Problem
 
Ok guys, i've been running xenon bulbs in my car for 2 years now. Never had an issue. Now my passenger side headlight is braely producing light and stays the same on high or low beam. I swaped to a different (OEM replacement bulb) that I bought brand new and it does the same. I checked the connector and it doesnt seem melted, warped or in anyway distorted.

Any other idea's? Man the list of things to fix is adding up quick :(

Have you checked the battery or the alt? Do Cobras have a voltage regulator?

check your ground wires

Its a ground. I was under the hood last night messing with wires and it breifly came on full power. A wire has come loose in that huge bundle of wires apperently thats in front of the air filter. I gotta pull it apart and get the ground redone.

thanks everyone :)

I might do it Craig. BUt for some reason I got a coolant leaks thats started that is going to have to be addressed soon. Its something near the radiator and not the heater core like I had origionally thought (though paul and jason did find a small one back around the heater core that may still be causing issues.) this one is defintely showing leaking signs :(
