Left headlight does not come on.

96 olds achieva. both headlights work fine in park, but when taken out of park the left headlight goes dimmer(seems to be day time lights). when i press the parking break both the headlights lights will come on fine and stay on until i turn off the car. im thinking its a bad ground but not sure where to look or what to do. any ideas?
