well they work its just that the drivers side is dim.i looked at the wiring behind the headlights and the previous owner had the h/l's wired to each other so i unwired it and wired every thing back to stock but the drivers side h/l doesnt work..does any body know what the problem could be.

most likely it/s a bad switch. If you want to ghetto rig it you can put it back to the way it was, or do what I did. I opened up the steering column shroud and jumped the left and right side lowbeam wires together. Don't remeber what colors the wires were though.

it's gonna be tough. sounds like they rigged it up to deal with an electrical problem they couldn't or didn't want to pay to have fixed.
