Wink 2002 Audi A4 quatro

Have this problem with the left side front signal light, is not working, checked the bulb is good, checked the fuse is good,also the horn is not working ether, same checked the fuse for the horn too,and is good
The problem I have the front light is very hard to take off, I had to take the wheel and the fender cover off from underneath the front left fender in order to replace the bulb, is there any easier way to replace these bulbs ?, or I'm missing here something
Seems like the light is working fine for a day and so then goes off, then works again fine for a day or so,replaced the bulb with a new one, and was working for a few days and then started doing the same thing again, keeps going on and off
Feed back would be appreciated

The bulb socket likely has a loose pin. I had this problem with a pair of OEM Valeo brand new assemblies. Next time the bulb is out of the socket, retension the socket pins that contact the bulb (it's usually the gnd). Might be easier to unbolt the headlight to gain access vs taking the wheel and liner off.

Check your wire connector on the two horns to ensure they were not left disconnected after a previous service event.

The problem is that, the head light would not come off,I tried to remove it and seems like for some reason is the way is held in the place I could not figure out how to take the head light off,that is why I had to take the wheel off and the liner
I would appreciate if you guys can send me a link or a diagram where is showing the head light removal for 2002 Audi A4 quattro

Found the problem,the bulb was a chip after market bulb,had a few of these bulbs and they kept on burning out,got one from wolkswagen and all good now
I have another question:

Same as with the bulbs: fuel quality must be as recommended by the manufacturer!
Don't cheapen it out... it will cost you more in the long run!
