My car was purchased with nonworking headlights. Switched over to H4s with the initial tune up and there was rust in the buckets and the shop spent some time looking at grounds etc.. and got everything up and going.
Now that the car has been stripped for paint, I have learned that I am dealing with frayed headlight wires. As you can see the shielding is stripped/melted and wires are a bit of a cluster F-ck. Passenger side is worse. What is the best way to deal with this? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Those are the headlight motor wires, not the headlights. You need to inspect that wiring all the back to the fusepanel. Bet you find a short somewhere.
