WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT THE HEADLIGHTS BEGAN TO BLINK AND THEN SHUT OFF COMPLETELY. WAITED FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES AND TURNED THE LIGHTS BACK ON FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES BEFORE THEY SHUT OFF AGAIN.

MY HEADLIGHT SYSTEM AND WIRING IS COMPLETELY STOCK INCLUDING THE FUSES (WHICH NEVER BLEW). THIS PROBLEM PRESENTS TWO PROBLEMS, COMPLETE LOSS OF LIGHTS WHILE DRIVING AND ELECTRICAL FIRE. *TR
