Default headlight does not come on

i noticed that my headlight was out last week. I decided yesterday to change to bulbs. after changing the bulb on the left headlight. it still did not work. tried another bulb and found it still does not work. check the fuse in the engine compartment also and it is fine.

any ideas what it may be.

Check the underhood fuses. I think each headlight has it's own.

In addition to the fuse, I believe there's a relay as well.

I believe that the base of the bulb has to ground with the bezzel. Try using a piece of sandpaper to scuff up the base.
