Please help!!! 97 LHS one headlight except when in reverse
 

Just traded my 95 explorer for a 97 lhs nice car just one small problem, I have only the drivers side head light......... unless you put the car in reverse? The for lights also only work in reverse and there is no reverse light at all. Please help the cops like to pull people over in our town for that kinda crap. any input would be awsome.

Thanks

About the only thing you can do without professional help, is inspect under dash and underhood for any OBVIOUS wiring damage, or the additions of any aftermarket equipment.

The vehicle is equipped with a body controller, and short of obvious tampering with wiring, there is nothing that would account for your scenario...Diagnosis of body control functionality would be the bare minimum first step.
