The driver’s side headlight (both beams) is out on my 92 Nissan p/u. I replaced the bulb with a new one, but the headlight still doesn’t work. Any ideas?

Check the fuses and check the grounds. Next, get a wiring diagram, and check the wires and the switch. There may also be a relay.

It was the left-headlight fuse. Thanks for the suggestion.
