headlight issue

[Eagle_Adam]

74 620 - stock headlights

 

Ive been piecing my truck back together after a collision, damage occurred on the drivers side. I got the front end back together after body work and paint and now my passenger side headlight and fender turn signal wont work unless i have the high beams on :blink:

 

Ive changed the headlight and turn signal bulbs to no avail. Checked the fuses and cleaned the back of the fuse box.

 

Ideas??

what shape is your fuse box in?

we used to have to move the fuse around a bit in jessis wagon. if we didn't the lights would do all kinds of funny stuff.

brand new (NOS) as of 6 months ago

did you check for broken grounded out wires in the area of the accident?

[Eagle_Adam]

yes - i haven't found any yet but the damage occurred on the opposite side from where im having the electrical issues

upon more inspection i found that the bullet connectors for the pass side fender turn signal are toast, will replace with new ones after work.

[Eagle_Adam]

got the bullet connectors replaced and now the fender turn signal/marker light works but still a no go on the headlight. It works on high but not on regular driving - ideas?

Trace it back. Look for voltage at the headlight connector. Just two days ago my 2006 left headlights stopped working but had voltage at the connector. Pull the connector off and back on and it started working again.

 

If no voltage there, keep tracing it. Check the relay. Check the fuse output.
