Default Frick lights!

I'm slightly angry right now. A week or so ago my right turn signal stopped blinking/working in general, turned out to be a bad ground. Got it fixed, everything is good.

Well, I walked inside just now, and my mom tells me my headlight is out. I go back outside, and sure enough it's not working. But, it's not completely gone. From a distance it looks completely gone, and from a couple inches you can see it is on verrrrrry slightly. And it's flashing. You can barely tell though, but it's definitely making a tiny bit of light.

Do you think it's another bad ground?

I didn't think to check my brights. I'll do that when it stops raining...

If it's flickering it sounds more like a bad connection of some sort. The OEM lights are a sealed halogen, meaning they're either on or off usually.

Yeah, that actually just hit me a few minutes ago.

Hopefully it'll slow down out there (the rain) and I'll be able to go check. And hopefully I'll be able to come back and say 'good call, slvr!'.

Well, as much as I hate to say it, I don't think it's a connection. I think it looked like it was flickering because of the way the car was positioned in our driveway, in front of the garage lights. I hate to say that, because odds are I need a new light...and these things are frickin' expensive! >:[

Relatively speaking, the lights are pretty new. I got them less than a year ago...grr....
