2006 RAV4 - front right side headlight goes off while drivin

[Amyj1988]

Am trying to figure out what could be wrong with my front right headlight - for a while it has been going off a few mins into driving usually when I come to a stop or going downhill but the bulb will work when turned off and on again. As of the last week or so it now just flicks on then goes off almost straight away. I’ve heard the bulbs are very expensive to replace but is this the issue or is there a connection problem?

Headlight bulbs are pretty inexpensive (for a RAV4 of that period) and the easiest thing to do would be to try a replacement bulb as a first step. If that doesn't help, you will need to track down a connection issue.

If you were in the UK I'd suggest popping over to the Halfords website, putting in your registration number, and see what they have to offer and at what price. (And they'll fit it for you.)

Check the connector, sounds like a bad wiring or a loose connection problem
