2001 CARAVAN headlight issues

Intermittent headlight issues. Running light operates on left side only, when start vehicle and switch on full headlights, right side light on alone. Replaced both lamps, then switched sides same problem. Some days all works properly and then back to original problem. There is NOT a fuse or relay that I can see designated to the Headlights. This started with the headlight warning light coming on , it disappeared after I replaced what I thought was a faulty lamp, but the problems persist. I'm using the #9007 replacement bulb as recomended. Any help would be much appreciated.

Unless someone here knows of a common failure point in the system, the best advice would be to get some accurate vehicle-specific schematics (from the FSM or www.alldata) and break out Mr. Multimeter and start tracing voltage. If you don't have the skills then find or pay someone who does.

Also, not uncommon for this type of problem to be caused by corroded connectors in the harness - including (especially?) the connectors that plug onto the bulbs themselves. Your statement that "This started with the headlight warning light coming on, it disappeared after I replaced what I thought was a faulty lamp, but the problems persist" supports that possibility.
