Default Headlight problem....HELP!!

Ill start off by telling you the car, and then the problem.

1997 Honda Prelude SH
5 Speed
160k km.

Anyways, whats happened is I bought this car a few months ago. All was fine and dandy, then I turn the lights on a few weeks later to drive at night and find the left headlight burnt out. Quick easy fix is just to give it a little hit and it lights right up (usually). After a few weeks, it just refused to go on so I went to the Honda dealership and asked for a new bulb. I bought it , they installed it , and it lit right up, only for the first time.

So, in short, the left headlight is confusing me (normal , not hi-beam's). I don't think its the bulb since I just replaced it yesterday, so I'm thinking it might be electrical? Another weird thing is the daytime lights work just fine, its only when you turn the light switch all the way on that the left headlight just goes out completely. Electrical problem? Wiring Problem??

Its not THAT big of a problem, as I just turn on my highbeam's so I don't get pulled over. However, that is annoying to other drivers and gets annoying after a while to yourself too (always seeing that blue light when it's much nicer without it).

ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!

also, mods, if this is the wrong forum please move it or what have you. Don't want to **** anybody off. Thanks!!
