: The passenger side low beam head light started acting up a week ago. It would go out and come back on. Now it's out! I can't see any wiring problem. No blown fuse, tryed changing the bulb and that didn't work. Is there any thing else I should try?

Hi Larry,
The LKM is the culprit, I have heard of taking the module apart and finding loose solder joints inside. They resoldered the joints and all was well. If you aren't able to solder, take the module to a radio repair shop and ask them to do it for you. The new module is reportedly expensive, so try the solder route first. Happy Easter.
