Sounds correct-- clean all connections and perhaps run a ground wire from headlight body directly to ground for test

How do you fix a 1966 Ford Mustang if the lights do not always come on when you pull the switch?
Change the headlight switch. If the switch fails to fix the problem, you may want to pull the headlamps out and check the connection at the back. Lastly, inspect the complete headlight wiring harness for missing insulation, exposed or frayed wires, or loose firewall connection.
Can you drive a car in daylight that is missing an entire headlight?
Certainly ... but once it becomes dusk and headlights are required, it had better be in working order. One might be stopped by a policing authority anyway - all licensed autos are supposed to have everything in working order at all times.
05 Town and Country. tail light housing was cracked so replaced entire unit in Sept. now back turn signal only works when headlights are off. when headlights are on turn signal does not flash. Why?
This answer is not vehicle specific, in other words this information is valid for all cars that have a separate ground wire/connection at the tail-light assembly. Your most likely culprit is a totally open ground connection specifically at the 2-pin socket for the problem turn-signal. What is probably happening is your turn signal works when the headlights are off because that socket has no ground of it's own and so is using the headlight circuit pin (located in the bottom of the socket) as it's ground path. When the headlights are turned on then that "ground" is "electronically removed". In other words the problem socket "sees" a ground on the headlight pin when the headlights are off and the turn-signal pin is made "hot" by activating that turn-signal. What is happening is the turn signal circuit is grounding thru the filaments of the headlights themselves. However, when the headlights come on then that headlight pin goes "hot" also... so you end up with two hots and no ground for the current to flow thru. You can test this with a 12volt bulb type of test-light clipped onto a hot (+12v) wire (verify the connection by probing a solid body ground and making the test light come on). Then "probe" the shell of the socket (the metal part that the pin sticking out of the side of the bulb touches when the bulb is installed) if the test-light will not come on when you poke the metal shell of the socket then you have confirmed ground is missing. Good luck!

How do you repair a 1987 corvette headlight motor The headlight opens O K but continues to run after it closes?
If your relays are working properly, you might have a stripped gear in the motor. You can replace the gear or the motor depending on your resources. If the headlight is loose, the gear more than likely has teeth missing.

What does lack of headlight pattern on a 2001 147 t spark mean?
apparently it means the retaining clip on the headlight bulb is missing and therefore the bulb is wobboling slightly when the engine is running and it is an M.O.T fail and it will cost you fortune for them to replace but you can do it yourself for a few pence
How do you install l corner lights 99 tacoma?
There should be a screw connecting the corner light to the main headlight, and there is a metal piece that pops into a plastic connector on the headlight as well. You just push the metal piece into the plastic no screw. The top screw however should be secured into the head light. If you are missing the screw hole on your headlight, then you will need to replace the headlight. I just did both of mine from an accident! Hope this helps.

Check the fuse. If it is blown, lose, or missing, the lights won't work. If that doesn't work, check to see if they have jammed in place.
