Hey All -


I have a 2003 RSX and the driver side headlight went out. I put in a new bulb twice and neither one worked (and no, I did not touch the glass part of the bulb). I then proceeded to check the fuse and changed it for good measure, and that didnt give me any light either. Any ideas what my problem might be or how I fix it?

You needvolt meter to test for voltage and proper ground. Other than that....There will be more thanone fuse for the lights as well. Check both fuse boxes. That bulb is really hard to get at, You may want to take the battery out as it is in the way. This will alow you to see if you have it plugged the bulb in propery (no shame in that right). Did the first bulb look burnt?

look for bent pins or blackened plastic in the bulb plug.

after that it's test light/volt meter time
