History: Alternator failed on me and had it replaced. Prior to replacing the alternator, I noticed that the driver's headlight low beam was not working (delayed fixing this until alternator was replaced and battery was charging). I bought two replacement headlights for my C4 1987 Convertible and replaced the left side first. After replacing the headlight, the light worked fine. By the next day, the light was no longer working.
My thoughts:
1. I did not secure the light fully and the connection has jiggled loose
2. While alternator was going bad, it caused damage to the fuseable ink for the driver's headlight (I believe this is under the battery but haven't confirmed)
3. Wire short (I inspected the wires and found no damage)
Is there anything I could be missing? The passenger side headlight works fine, both headlight motors work fine and everything else seems to be working fine.
Is there a fuseblock for the headlights (I haven't found any fuses for headlights and would like something as simple as a replacing a fuse).
Thanks
