Left High Beam Wont Work
This problem sounds pretty simple but I have no idea where to find the part or what to do.
My left high beam on my 95Accord EX/V6wont turn on. I thought it was the bulb but I went to switch the bulbs and found that the part that is suppose to clip on and power the bulb is broken.
If anybody knows any links where I can buy the part that connects to the bulb and how I would go about installing it I would really appreciate it!
Thanks in Advance!

If I were in your shoes, I'd go to the junk yard with the old bulb and cut a few harnesses off of some cars that fit the bulb ..... then I'd solder and shrink wrap the new socket onto the car and finish by hot glueing the ends of the shrink wrap.

falkore's idea will work, also i believe auto zone sells the pigtails as they are called if i am thinking of what you are trying to describe. If you buy one then you just have to solder it on.

Also, make sure that you have the right size shrink wrap, get the better kind with adhesive inside it and leave extra on either side of the splice to make a tighter seal. If done properly, the hot glue should not be necessary, but I'd do it anyway.

its mostly wiring nothing metal. In my car its a black and blue cable with the part that hooks up to the black part of the bulb looking like the plug of a monitor on to a pc. You think if I go to autozone they would take a look and just sell me the part I need?

Ok well il go 2 autozone and see what happens, I also forgot to mention that I never noticed the wiring and thought it was the bulb until I lifted up the Coolant container and saw it loose.

Autozone basically told me that the part that I needed they couldnt supply it to me. They suggested i go 2 an auto parts or junkyard and tell them what I need, they'll rip it out of the older car and give it to me and il basically just redo the wiring!
