I have been having this headlight problem the passenger head chooses when it wants to work. I can give it the head light a little love tap and it turns on. but when I’m driving and it randomly turns off it gets on my nerves. and D*stars cousin who also has an s14 zenki has the same problem. anyone have any ideas what the problem could be?

thanks

there is probably a loose connection in the wiring, and whe you go over bumps, brake, accelerate, ect. it cuts the connection or reestablishes it.

Pop the hood and take a look at the wires, there might be a spot where the wires bent/rubbed over one spot repeatedly and this caused the wires to separate a bit

try checking the harness for loose wires and maybe the bulb is not in all the way?
