I replaced bulb works for x amount of time, sometimes will come on while I am taking the headlight assy out. I am getting very annoyed replacing bulbs myself at a cost of almost $20.00 per bulb. Would appreciate an answer of how to fix problem.

Forums tell you to pay $800 + to fix. Easy fix. Any auto parts store has the low beam harness you need. Put in the new harness and new bulb, and have fun with your newly working headlights! And for a whopping approximate $56. Obviously ensure your battery is disconnected first, and is the last thing connected after all work is completed!

The right headlight goes out within 2 weeks of replacement. Once it came back on suddenly with manual movement. It makes me think it is some sort of electrical problem. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, what is the solution?
