Default IS300 headlight problem

My headlights have been giving me problems lately, the driver side
Low beam headlights go out, I have replaced the bulb and worked fine
And then it did it again and my high beam headlights are weak my low beams
Light up more than my high beams. What can be causing this?

Did u look at the actual contact points on the wire you attach to the bulb? Sometimes they are burnt from a weak contact and u have to file it clean. I have had to splice/solder new connector ends on customers cars because they couldnt install the bulb and wire properly and they fried the contact points. You also want to use a quality bulb. Good luck

i have a computer go out recently. It would cause the light not to turn on at times. If the light comes on for a few minutes then turns off its typically a bulb issue.
