Passenger side healight - no power! =(

so as title says, my passenger side has no power..
I thought my HID bulb or ballast got toasted, but tried to plug in OEM bulbs and even that won't fire up.
can anyone direct me to where I can find the fuse (if there is one) of headlights..I hope the left and right headlight has separate fuses or else it's a wiring problem and that's when I'm ****ed!

thanks!

have u ever blown a bulb before? generally that would be a hint of voltage instability.

hid kits are not equal and they can surge on there own.

best case senario is u blew a fuse but generally that would mean both went out.

i have gotten three emails like this from my blog readers.

in two cases it was a failure of the actual wire. someone did a drl by pass and didnt do a good job protecting the wires. one didnt rewrap with electrical tape properly. second the wire was exposed and grounded itself.

the other situation was someone using 55w kit and did some meltage in the wire.

hope that helps.

nope..haven't had a blown bulb before..

what happened was my driver side bulb keeps on shutting down - loose connection..
so I decided to switch bulbs from both sides...after switch, driver side was fine but passenger wont fire up..tried switching bulbs again, no luck..tried switching ballasts, and even using 2 different ballasts, still not working..decided to check power by plugging in OEM halogen bulbs, no luck with that either..so my guess was the power source is the problem..

so you're saying fuse for the headlight is for both sides? they don't have separate fuses?

so I got this one sorted out - blown fuse was the cause..
now I have a new dilemma, 1 HID bulb is shot..
if anyone has an extra HID bulb (9006) lying around, PM me.

thanks!
