Front Left Headlights won't turn on

I don't have vacuum issues wooo! But my front left lights went up the other day and both low beam and high beam turned off. I went ahead and checked them and both bulbs are fine. Without redoing the entire wiring anyone know any obvious places for me to look?/Has this happened to anyone. **It immediately occurred when light finished going up

I'd try connecting a ground to the lamp ground, if it still didn't work, I'd try measuring for 12v to a known good ground and move back toward the wiring and connectors till I found where it was lost. You could also wiggle the connectors and wires and ground connection since it seems to be intermittent based on movement.
