Hey guys.
             My right head light doesn't seem to be lighting up properly. The parking lights work, and so do the highbeams, but not the the normal setting. I removed the bulb out today and made sure all the wiring was right (the thing was being held in place with MASKING TAPE, so I soldered a blade terminal in there and fixed it up) but it still wont light properly.

Any Ideas? I thought about checking the ground but I have no freaking clue where it is.

Thanks in advance.

You might have to replace the sealed beam if the blade was broke off then the ground is the brown wire attached to the body. I can't remember but I think the ground is connected behind the front kick panal if not in the bucket. good luck...vwbr

Thanks!

It started working by itself the other day... and my radio stopped working then started again... I haven't had a chance to check grounds yet, I'll do that tomorrow while I repaint my bumpers (CHROME! ) and rust treat my body.

Any more ideas guys?
