I have a 1992 240sx,when i turn on the headlights the left side driving light doesnt come one, the blinker still works, and the other side has the same bulb in it yet it works fine. I am completely confused as to why this happens. Any help is welcome

thanks

I dont understand what you mean. You took the bulb from the working side and put it in the left side? Driving bulb is separate from blinker.

not the headlight....the little orange light that is the blinker...they stay on when you put the headlights on, or maybe they arent suppose too...but when i have the headlights on, the drivers side light doesnt go on but the other one does and stays on....both blinkers work...im just trying to figure out why the drivers side wont stay on like the other one

I think it is called front combination lamp. I think it is the same story when your main headlights high beam works when the low beam doesnt. I'd get a new bulb or get multimeter and test to see if you are getting voltage at the bulb or test the bulb with 12v source. Inspect the bulb. you might see one filiment broken.
