G35 headlight issue

Both headlights worked fine. Now one doesn't... Haven't messed with anything in the car.

Blinker still works so I dont get why or what would have caused this headlight to go out.

Any help would be appreciated.

^so what im getting from you...
A. there are TWO bulbs in each side of the blinker... One that blinks and one that says lit until the blinker is turned on? And there is no rapid blinking telling mw the bulb is burnt.
or
B. your too lazy or just flat out can't read 100% of a post.

Which is it slick?

Oh and the headlights are less than 1 year old, I'd be surprised if it were the bulb.

It would seem as if one of the filaments in your driver side parking/blinker bulb has blown (I'm assuming these are 03-05 headlights). You'll need to replace that bulb which is a 7443.

+1 or just rip out the other filament on the bulb that works so they match thats what I did so now I have no parking lights but my blinkers still work

^ Have you ever tried searching on this site? You get 17 pages on things that aren't relevant so your term "newb" doesn't apply to me, considering I did do a search.

Now, I didn't know that a dual filament bulb was even in existence. So instead of being an ignorant poster who knew this HELPFUL information, you withheld it. Why not help a fellow driver out in the first place?

Thanks for the help Boza I'll get right on to tracking down this bulb, and R10T X... you came through Skippy.
