Default OK, headlight problem is back and worse

a while back i posted that my headlights were not working on one day when i tried to drive my car. That magically has passed. but today, the problem was horrible. the lights were going on and off while i was driving(at night). and the power throughout the car seems to fade. what do i do?

i know there is a big problem with the electronics in my car because it has to be jumped every other day.

help me :confused:

You need get in touch withyour local vette club and let their club ghuru look at your car, it needs going over with a DVM to see what the troubles are...
from the tone of your post, you are not electrically inclined to trying to explain your problem without looking is too vague/hard to do...

GENE :rolleyes:

I would start by looking at the headlight wiring to see if there is a wire worn through and rubbing on any of the metal pieces under there. Sounds kind of like that's the problem to me, but with electrical it could be anywhere. Start there and let us know what you find.
