Did bulb (9006 to 9005) upgrade, one stopped working!! HELP!

[opticalserenity]

Ok, so I did the bulb upgrade and it went just fine, very easy. And both worked, however, I turned off my lights, then turned them back on to compare, and my passenger side was not on!

So, I said, ok, maybe I blew a bulb, so I replaced the bulb, NOTHING. I checked the other side, and all the bulbs work on driver's side. But none of the bulbs work in the passenger side.

All the wires look in tact, so, what happened? How do I fix this? Do I need to change the bulb harness thing that the bulb plugs into? HELP PLEASE!

BTW, its an '03 camry LE.

Did you check the fuses?

check the actual plug of the harness....doing the 9005 conversion often melts the 9006 harness...

Thanks for the responses guys, it was the fuse, after all.I feel like a total idiot that I freaked out and didn't check the fuse box.

I'll say this, it is WAY more bright than my stock bulbs were. Amazing!

Is this true? I thought it was supposed to be safe since the stock 9005 bulbs used the same wattage or something?
Can someone else confirm?

9006=55 watts
9005=65 watts


I think, lol

Reagradless of wattage, if you look at the bulb, the 9006 has the tip covered where as the 9005 doesn't. that alone would produce noticable results
