Hello All

The passenger side headlight on my 2000 Sonata went out. I changed the
bulb, but it still doesn't work. The high beam works, but not the low
beam. I saw a 15 amp fuse under the hood, but that seems all right. Is
there something else to check? Are there separate fuses for each side?
Thanks
Ed

I don't believe there are separate fuses. I've seen these connectors burn
in a few Subarus. First, find out what the situation is at the bulb. If
you've got power and ground, the bulb should light. Are you sure you
replaced the correct bulb? The low beam is the upper bulb.

Thanks
You got it right. I replaced the lower bulb. I replaced the upper now
and all is well now.

Thanks again.
