Headlight Issue
Hey guys my headlight was brutally hit by a flying piece of trash on I95 while racing and it cracked it and water got inside over a couple 2 weeks or so. Today i removed the bumper and the light and fixed it and since it got water the headlight Low beam wouldn't
work. Once i cleaned it out and reinstalled it the light was turning on so i put the bumper back on and moved the car from driveway to street and now the light wont turn on anymore. Any possible fixes or anything i should look for im going to remove the light again tmrw and check all the connections bu everything looked fine upon removal.
Thanks in Advance.

well, the light worked after you did your fix. But if the seals aren't good, that could be affecting the light, never having messed too much with my headlights for this reason I am not 100% on this.
But I would start with making sure all your wires are tight. Something may have slipped off when you putting the bumper back on.
Get a voltage/circuit tester and work your way back from the light.

:( traded in my 8
Sounds like a loose wire somewhere - trust me - I had a loose wire in my throttle body sensor harness and it took forever to figure that one out.
Start with checking the wire connections/harness

+1 to loose wire somewhere.

Ok update on the situation... I once again did the same procedure to check it but this time i opended the electrical box on the headlight you know the one that says 25000 volts Death Ahead sticker. Well anyways one of the blue cylinder thingys has rusted on a connections and ruined it now i need a new assembly as well as the headlight box electrical device.
