| Description of the problem | This is the latest in a series of headlight failures on a dodge g. V. Van. Today, the headlights would not come on when the switch was pulled until i cut it on and off 4-5 times. The driving lights would blink on-off while driving and the switch was off for those lights. Then the headlights went out totally when i was driving about 45 mph after 7 :00 pm.... In the dark!! As i said, this is about the 3rd-4th time that this has happened and it is not something i want to continue. I have had it to two(2) dealers and they cannot find the problem. Thanks for listening.*jb |
