need help headlight not workin

alright i just bought a 91 hatch and the driver side headlight wont work
i have tried two bulbs from walmart and one from pepboys and none of them have worked. i checked it with my meter and i got 12v at the connector am i just having bad luck and all the bulbs i buy are broken allready. i just dont get how i have 12v and lights arent working.

so i took out my passenger side out and put the new bulb in there and it works.
i checked the voltage and it was a little higher than the driver side. i have been doing this with the car off, do you guys think if i start the car and get the 14v from the alternator that the light will work. this is confusing me because i still got 12v on the driver side and the light dosent even come on dim but works fine on other side.
