Hi, I got my 91 240 like 3 months ago, and since the day I took it home, the left headlight would not light up whatsoever......so, today, I finally go and get a new headlamp, put that in, and boom....still doesnt work....I checked the fuse and thats not the prob. either.....havent done any power checks with a voltmeter yet though.....but any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

head light switch has a bad connection internally. Very common on older nissans.
