Default Headlight/Taillight out

Alright, I'm not much of an electrical person and got a few questions.


my 95 Camaros right side Headlight is out, as well as my Brakelight (and obviously rear blinker too) but the taillight isn't out, just the brakelight part of it.

How do I tell if its the taillight or headlight that is giving me the problems? The turn signal doesn't cut in and out and just stays on constant. The weird part is in the 2.5 years I've owned the car I've replaced the right side headlight, and right side taillight but not anything on the drivers side.

I just went through this 3 or 4 weeks ago. I couldn't tell which was out either so I ended up taking a few hours on a Sunday to replace both.

Well I guess it was just a freaky timing thing that both went out around the same exact time.

Replaced the rear brake/turn signal light and the front low beam (I just bought a Sylvania low beam about 8 months ago and it already bit the dust) so I'm not that impressed with Sylvania right now.

I never much cared for Sylvania lights. I've had PIAAs on my T/A and in my Hondur for a while now, both having no problems since they day they were installed.
