headlight help

(i oppsied and put this under body the first time)
i recently noticed my right headlight (from sitting in drivers seat) was noticably dimmer then the left. we replaced them with sylvania silverstars and they are much brighter. however the right one is still dimmer then the left in normal and bright settings. the right turn signal is also messed up. it does not "blink" as fast as the left one, also the turn signal arrow above the gauges stays lit when the lights are on. but when you put the turn signal on it will go to black. is this a possible fuse or gound problem? all help is welcomed -chris

Could be ground or weak connections on that side. Check the lighting harness on that side. Make sure the connections are tight and corrosion free and that there arent any frays or breaks.
