It could be low voltage at the ballast, or the relay for the ballast is dead. Check power at the factory plug, then at the input of the relay, then at the output. Grounds are also a good thing to check.

ok so did some messing around....fuses under the dash are good..dont even say anything bout headlights...

headlights fuses are next to the battery,both are 15amp fuses labled LEFT and RIGHT headlight..

--both fuses were blown, i replaced them tured on the head lights...and the right didnt work,left side did.....for a min,not even


--replaced them again,last 2 15 amp fuses...still didnt go on....but when i hit the highbean/brights,i flicked them...they left headlight went on, when it shouldnt,cuz its only wired into my lowbeams.....kinda weird

they didnt work,fuse is blown again,but only left side....wtf right side still isnt working..


why is there a whit wire coming from the leftside headlight harness,under the rad support to the right sideheadlight harness...??? this was also on my old 91 nx...

Check the head light switch. Had a similar problem and found the head light switch was grounded out.

yes the switch on the column. its very easy to burn one up. When mine went bad I had not low beams, but had high beams. the parking lights also worked. I used the circuit diagram in the fsm to figure out the switch burned up.
