Hey everyone,
I am having this frustrating issue with my front right headlight...
every few days the light will go out.
So i will remove the washer bottle, and open the back of the headlight, and the globe is not blown, so i blow out all the dust from the connectors and all of a sudden the light works perfectly!
then after a few days the cycle starts again bearing the same result (light works after unplugging and re plugging in connector).

does anyone have any idea why this is happening or how i could fix it?
i have tried putting a contact cleaner spray into the plug, but made no difference.

Thanks everyone.

The globe itself may be on the way out or a wire may be loose inside the plug assembly.. That would be guess!

I'd be tempted to agree with Alan here. My front globe had issues with turning on properly once in a while. All I needed to do was give it a slight love tap :wtf: and its been working fine since! Try replace them and see how you go.
