exterior lights not working
So the problem is with my exterior lights, I have replaced all the bulbs exempt for the headlights and there still not working right. the passenger side headlights neither are working, the drivers side headlights only ones working, the drivers side fender side marker light isn't working but the passenger side one is, the front lower lights in the bumper passenger side one is very dim and drivers side is working great. the drivers side tail lights work and the passenger side ones are very dim. And the blinkers don't work at all either direction. The headlight sockets have power to them but won't light up the headlight. Any advise?

Re: exterior lights not working
Grab a test light and test the wires at the lights to see if they're getting power. Ensure all plugs are tight, including grounds. Check the ground strap from the battery as well.
If no power at the lights trace the wires back (a wiring diagram will be useful) until you find the point at which they are receiving power and you will have found the break.
If you have power at the lights and they're still not lighting up I'll bet the socket is bad. I've had that problem before, replaced the socket and pigtail and it worked flawlessly.
