I have a base model '95 240sx. The problem started a couple of weeks ago, with the right highbeams not working and when you turned the highs on the right lowbeam would go off as well. Now neither right headlight works, high or low. My question is, Is there a relay somewhere for the lights? If so, where? I have already checked fuse and bulbs, both are in perfect working order.

first off if its its just the right side that isnt working i would try changing the bulb. no use spending hours of work for something that may be as simple as a burnt bulb. aside from that if the bulb is fine i would start by checking the wiring, the plug itself may have gotten water in it or the contacts may be loose. just check it from the plug as far back as possible. if you dont find any issues with the wiring or plug then check your switch inside the car. if you have checked all the fuses and relays that would be the only other thing i could think of.

I have checked the bulb, bought a new one, changed it, nothing. Swapped it with the left side, nothing changed. Switched fuse and bulbs left for right, always the same light didn't work.About 2 weeks later, the low beams stopped working as well. Thanks for any ideas anyone has.
