Hey guys I have a 77 Newport with 57,xxx miles and I'm having a problem with the headlights randomly quitting. It doesn't matter if its moving or parked. They work fine for the first 10 miles or so and then start going on and off. If I shut them off for a couple miles when I turn them back on they will stay on longer.
All the other lights on the car work perfectly when they quit, no dimming or flickering of dash,marker or brake lights. Acts just like a circuit breaker opening and closing but there isn't one for the headlights is there? I've felt under the dash and fuse panel and nothing feels hot or smells hot in the car. I've replaced the dimmer switch twice with no change. Kinda stumped here. My next thought was to replace the headlight switch but wiggling the switch doesn't make even a flicker in the lights. Car is currently at my buddies just looking for some advice when I get back to it. TIA
