I just bought a 2001 Maxima a week ago, and a few days in I noticed my left daytime running light was not working. High beams and Low beams work fine, but the left daytime running light does not work. I replaced the bulb then had somebody look at it and either the previous owner or the dealer seems to have tried to fix the problem by running a wire from the right headlight and splicing it into the wire for the left headlight, which only ended up dimming the right headlight and not helping at all. Shady stuff....anyways what could the real problem be? I have no idea how they "safetied" this car like this.
