Weird headlight problem.
So for a couple months now the driver side low beam headlight likes to randomly go out. I used to be able to just take my index finger and tap on the low beam, and it'd come right back on. Now it takes a good whack to get it to come back on. When you turn the brights off Sometimes it won't come back on.
Whenever the foglight switch is on, the headlight is guaranteed not to come on. Foglights have also been on the fritz. First the passenger side stopped working, then the driver side lens cracked and corroded the bulb insanely quick. (I had checked the same foglight bulb a couple weeks before and it looked great) So now both foglights don't work, but I know the switch does because it still screws with the headlight.
When the foglight switch is off, the headlight will come on. I've also been keepin an eye on it the whole time, just kinda learning the characteristics of it going out all the time. It seems to not want to work when the headlight is cold. If I start the car and let it warm up since it's cold outside now, I can turn the brights on and off and the light will still come back on.
I've removed the headlight several times and check wires and connections. They all seem good. The level inside the headlight is cracked though, so I don't really know if that headlight is level.
I'm sure I could throw a headlight at it and it would work, but I just kinda want to know why it does that.
