You have a bad ground on the left low beam. Using a test light connected to ground see what wire is positive with low beams on. Using a piece of electrical wire connect one end to ground and with the headlight connector connected to the headlight and headlights on stick the other end into back of the connector at the ground wire. If the light gets brighter, you can cut the original ground wire to the connector ( 2-3 inches from headlight connector) and run a new wire from ground and connect it to the wire at the connector. Hope this is helpful.

    You have a bad ground connection for the light that is dim. Replacing the harnesses with the ones that came with the new lights will most likely fix the problem.

How do I fix problem with my right side low beam headlight on 2007 jeep Liberty

Check the wiring on that light. Also check the bulb with a couple of wires to the battery, or swap the bulb left to right to make sure the new bulb is okay.

2006 Ford Taurus headlamp wiring

If this fuse box diagram below is correct you have a fuse for left low beam head light and another fuse for right low beam head light and a third fuse for both the high beam headlights. If the fuse is good for the right I think I would take the left low beam head light and put on the right side and see if it works on the right side. If you think you got the wiring correct. It may be the bulb is bad from the wires which shorted out. A voltmeter or test light to the socket would save some time switching the lights. I have had the socket bad before and had to change the bulb socket.

i think you hit the nail on the head with the ground problem,if you remove the bulb from the head light assembly,wiggle the black wire to see if the bulb gets brighter,if it does remove the bulb and clean and tighten the ground wire end.if it does not get brighter from a wiggle,connect the ground end of a test light to the positive post of the battery and probe the black wire,test light should light,if so replace the light socket.
