Headlight problem...

Hello,

Just picked this lovely oval up and love it, I have an issue with the d.s. headlight though. The passenger side works perfect but the drivers is way dimmer. I have changed the headlights out on both sides with no big change, checked the wiring at the pigtails but nothing more than that. Do any of you gurus have any clues for my next step? Also, any Phoenix/Scottsdale folk out there that have meets send me a pm, I need to meet you all.

Check and clean the grounds.

I'd reckon grounds as well.
If that doesn't work you will have to get your multimeter out and find where the voltage drop is - could be anywhere from the switch to the headlight.
