did you try swapping bulbs with driver and passenger side to see if the bulb is bad?

yea i tried that and i changed out the bulb too and still nothing

i took the other headlight and plugged it in on the driver side to see if the harness was out in the car but it works. so then i took the bad one and plug it in on the other side and the same **** no headlight so ive got it down to being that bulb or something about it.

....

could u have accidentally touched 2 wrong wires together and popped a fuse? thats always a good thing to check first. also check the pins on the 9007 connector on the headlights. mine were a little misaligned and didnt plug in so obviously they didnt work, it took me a good hour + to figure that out.

yes... there are actually 4 fuses for headlights on this car... 1 for each low beam and 1 for each high beam... do your high beams work?
