Default Headlight not working properly

Greetings from Ireland, having a problem with one headlight, the side light & main beam work OK but the dipped beam doesn't. The bulb is good & the wiring looks OK, wondering if anybody has any ideas on where to look.

Thanks

What kind of headlight do you have on it? You might wanna check the connectors the bulb itself. The wiring could look fine but if the connector is too wide or not holding on correctly then it's beat. Other than that you might have to source the wiring to check for shorts.
