wrecked bulb?

Postby s21197 » Wed Mar 18, 2009 11:11 am

So yesterday morning, I noticed that my passenger side light bulb wasn't lighting up the road like it normally does. I got out and looked at it and it looks like light is only coming from half of the bulb. Looking closer, the bulb is fine but light still only seems to come from on half of the housing. Could the housing be warped? or is the bulb done?

I'd pull the bulb out and double check that it doesn't have a burn spot or that the filament isn't broken. If there isn't anything wrong with the bulb maybe the headlight aim is off.
