Best Answer

Cadillac and many other US cars' headlight system is run through a switch that has a fuse built-in. So the first direct answer would be to check the switch (even if the switch fuse should be a self-resetting type - the lights should resume working in some seconds after the fuse has cooled. But I guess it can die a complete death too if the current is too much over the normal or if the switch has been around the world many times).

1986 CADILLAC FLEETWOOD EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS:SWITCH Recall Date: 04/28/1986

Summary:

THE PUSH-PULL HEADLIGHT SWITCH MAY HAVE ELECTRICAL CONTACTS WHICH ALLOW AN INTERMITTENT HEADLIGHT CIRCUIT CAUSING HEADLIGHT TO FLICKER OR SUDDENLY GO OUT. CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: SUDDEN LOSS OF THE HEADLIGHTS UNDER SEVERE WEATHER OR NIGHTTIME DRIVING CONDITIONS COULD REDUCE DRIVER VISIBILITY WHICH MIGHT RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. NOTE: ALSO, SEE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 86V131000.

Consequence:

Remedy:

REPLACE HEADLIGHT SWITCH AS NECESSARY.
