Headlight Help

What's up guys. I am new to the forum and my first F150. I recently bought a 06 F150 Lariat scab 4x2 with a 5.4L. I am having a problem with the driver side head light. It comes on but not all the way on (shines but VERY dim). The low beam works correctly sporadically. I haven't done any trouble shooting yet because I haven't had a day off. I did replace the bulbs today thinking I had a loose filament maybe. Don't usually do shotgun maintenance but wanted to put xenon's in anyway. Was wondering if anyone had similar problems in the past before I started ripping and tearing into it. Thanks in advance.

Check to make sure there is proper power coming through the wires to the bulb if your problem still exists.

Sounds like a bad ground.
