Angry Passenger Side Low Beam went out...

What should I do first. They are Polarg, and the Bright Lights still work. Now I know I've just read threads about people who went back to stock and this has happened. But I haven't touched the car recently or got into an accident, so my question is, if this was your car, what would be the first thing you do???

Yeah, yea, yeah, I probably should have searched, but I'm lazy as hell, and you guys can probably give me better advice to my particular situation. Thanks in advance.

it's alwasy good the check the fuse, it's easy and simple

when a fuse blows on h4, it still releases some what of a current, but weak

The same thing happened to me last week. My passenger side Low beam went out but high beam would work. So I went and just got new bulbs for passenger and driver (so they match) and now it works fine. So your problem should just be the bulb.

I got Eurolite Xenon Plasma or something like that. It's whiter than stock bulbs which I used to have.

One problem I have is now my passenger side light is aimed up more and not so much on the road. Is there anyway I can fix this myself or do I have to go to the dealer?

Yeah, it was the bulb. (The fuse ) I took it out and you can see the wire was burnt for the low beam. So, just went back to stock, cause appearantly, I didn't have an extra bulb. Thanks guys for the replies.
