Anything put together by humans can be disassembled by humans.

I would be willing to look at it, but I don't get to Orlando that often.
Do you have a better picture? It looks like the bulb is actually
already out. Don't the replacement bulbs have their own wire?
Normally a swap of the woven white wire is not needed.
.........or am I misunderstanding?-Bob

well the problem is not the bulb itself, pulled it out and checked it, the fillament was fine. i put in the replacement bulb for the hell of it and still nothing.i broke out the DMM and i have voltage going into the headlight housing. so im guessing its between the bulb and where it comes out of the housing.which i cant really check to see what the problem is, probably resort to buying a whole new headlight assembly.
