It has to be a voltage problem. Start checking all the grounds. Good luck.

Yeah let us know how the grounds look behind the headlamps........ Someone show him to the thread that Bill Curlee had on cleaning those... (I can't find it) And if cleaning those grounds doesn't work, then there are other bad grounds, or your wiring harness under the battery has been damaged due to a leaking battery. To put your mind at ease I can bet you that there's probably no reality for each of the the fault messages that you were getting. You'll fix it.
