Hey guys I got 2 electrical issues right now. The car is a 93 240sx coupe with a s13 sr20

A. My headlight is not working.

Backdrop:
-the bulb is fine
-fuses are good
-dtrl's work
-the drivers side gets power and works but the passenger side does not Sad

Put a multimeter on the headlight wire and I think its not getting power. Does anyone know where the power comes from etc how can I fix this Sad

B. My windshield wipers don't retract on their own to the bottom of the windshield. Also the lowest setting does not work.

Backdrop:
-checked fuses
-tried a new timign control unit (tcu)

any help would be awesome, I'm not good at trouble shooting electrical shit. biggrin

thanks

Do the high beams work? If it is it sounds like it might be the combination switch in the steering column

high beam works on the same side as the headlight that works. But on the side where the headlight dosnt work neither does the high beam

as for the wiper drama, i tried a new wiper switch and the problem is still there.

do you happen to have an extra TCU, since you tried a new one and it did not work?
