Headlights keep going on and off

[rednecktech]

I have a 75 that the headlights will just go off after about 30 minutes, in high beam and dim. I have replaced both the dimmer and headlight switch. It seemed to make them stay on longer but they still go off. Any suggestions?

Dirty connections at plugs or ground, mine did the same thing, I had to replace the dimmer and also clean the dimmer plug it was dirty I havn't had any problems since.

I had the same problem a year or two ago. mine was just a bad ground. I had a ton of dirt, oil, mud where my ground connected to the block. after cleaning that up my lights never cut out again.

I have. By the time you figure in the cost of parts and your time its worth it to just buy one.

I have both - one bought from Ryan and built one too. Easy to build, but you'll get a lot better quality in the connections and relays by buying one as compared the stuff you get at the chain auto stores. Both continue to work great, though. Highly recommended - this WILL solve the problem! ;D
