Default Passenger headlight assembly not working

I just got my car back from the body shop after getting my hood repainted. I realized soon after I got it back that my passenger headlight assembly is not working. What I mean by that is neither the hi beams, low beams, turn signal, or driving lights work for the passenger side headlight. When I use the turn signal for that side the rear turn signal comes on but it blinks about twice as fast as the driver side. I checked the fuses for the hi/lo beams and turn signal on the passenger side and they looked fine.

I know the simple answer is to bring it back to the body shop, but I was wondering if anyone had seen this before and if it was an easy fix. I would prefer to just do it myself if it's easy. Thanks!

Super easy fix, plug it in. They forgot to plug it back in. I did this once and it did everything you said its doing.

Can I do this without removing the front bumper? I looked around but I didn't see the plug, the airbox was in the way. If i just have to remove the airbox that isn't so bad.

Actually easiest way is to either take the wheel off and remove fender liner, since the plug is right under it. Or turn the wheel in and squeeze your hand in there to plug it in.

Ok yeah I was able to take a look behind the light and I saw the connector just dangling there Looks like I'll have to take the wheel off.

Thanks for your help
