Drivers Side ,Side marker not working?

I need to get my PA STATE inspection this month and i heard that in PA all lights must be working. Well my front drivers side/side marker light doesnt work. I bought new 194 bulbs and my passenger side lights up but the drivers side doesnt light up. Now my question is do i have to replace the whole driver sidemarker assembly? Or do you think a fuse is out or something?




any help is appreciated. btw i have a 04 G35 coupe.

If you have replaced the bulb, and or any of the fuses and still not working. You might have an electrical problem with that light.

Brian, some of those bulbs are polarized, so pull the bulb out and rotate the bulb 180 degrees in the socket and see if it illuminates.

Totally true and LEDs are polarized. I learned that after putting my tail lights back on and realized one of them weren't working...uurrgghh....lol


Is the connector corroded on the driver side?

Trace those NISMO wires down and see if there's a break or swap bulbs with the other side that works, just because they're new....well you know. G/L

Try swapping bulbs left to right too see if the problem stays on the same side or if it swaps with the bulbs
