Dodge Avenger passenger headlights not working after bulb replacement on Dodge Avenger

Problem overview

Some Dodge Avenger owners report experiencing issues with passenger headlights not working even after replacing the bulb. These problems may stem from the absence of dedicated fuses for the headlights, although checking the fuses for overall condition is still advisable. Some owners have found that tapping on the headlight can temporarily resolve the issue, suggesting a possible loose connection or wiring problem. If the bulb replacement does not rectify the situation, it may be necessary to check the voltage at the plugs to ensure they are receiving power. Additionally, resetting the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) by disconnecting the power source for a couple of hours has been suggested as a potential fix for power distribution issues. Lastly, inspecting the wire side of the bulb connector for oxidation or burns can help identify any electrical connection problems. Addressing these factors can assist in diagnosing and resolving the headlight malfunction.
