Check connecting block is all the way in.
Change bulb with driver side bulb too see if the bulb is the problem
Check wires

The fuse box panel (the bit you lift off) has a picture representing all of the fuses and what they do. Im pretty sure theres different fuses for the left and right ones.

It's worth taking the connector block off and check the connections for corrosion (check those on the bulb as well). If moisture gets in then you get a nice white deposit of corrosion which will muck up the power supply (or earth) for the bulb.
