Members, my 73 914 has a issue I cannot seem to figure out.
While checking the frunk wiring harness everything appears to power up and work just fine, with the exception of the left wart. I had the same issue on my 2009 GM 1500 pickup. I could replace the parking/running light every day on that truck and without fail it would be blow out by the next day. Same thing with the left wart on the Teener. It doesn't blow/go out in front of you, but shut it off and turn it on the next day and dead. Replace the bulb and your good to go until the next day. What could be going on here, I'm perplexed, but that comes easy for me. |

Weak springs or contacts for the bulb. Or wrong wattage bulb?
Does the right side bulb match the left side? You could have had the wrong bulb the entire time. |
