Here's a thought I've been pondering on. Most people would accept that electronic devices are sensitive instruments with circuit connections finer than a human hair. Why is it that there are no reports of voltage spike damage to these devices but a robust high temperature wire filament is failing on a regular basis in some cars
Found it, thanks
Searching is good for you, however, to cut a long story short, HY said it was due to high resistance in the earth side of the circuit. So power is ok but the connection of the housing to the chassis is poor (somewhere). On that basis, If my car was blowing bulbs frequently, I would put my own earth wire in to fix the problem.
That's ok, Could it be that the high resistance is intermittent and when the resistance goes "low" that blows the bulb.
My pluses have been in over a year too, working fine.
Shambles,You! will! not! damage! your! paintwork! removing! the! headlamp! units!YOU SOUND ANGRY MATE
Maybe not, but You! Will! Damage! Your! headlight! Glass! by scratching it, if you are not forensically careful. Because there's a sharp piece of metal pointing downwards which catches the headlight glass housing on the outer top corner, this is designed to scratch your glass (which seems to be soft - does metal normally easily scratch glass?)
I am so frustrated with bulbs, i cant do it myself and going to a service becouse of this takes too many time and especially money!
