lateely my lights have been acting up.. i have HID replacements in and just about every 3rd time i turn on my lights one is out, so i have to open the hood, and push it or pull it (it = the back of the halogen bulb) and then it works again.. what's up w/ that... i also noticed that when my alarm goes off, only 1 headlight flashes

also, should i get my reverse lights the polarg kind, does that look good on '96 max's...

RE: Loose Wires?

First, check and see if the bulb is in its socket tightly. You might also want to check and see that the bulb's prongs/metal parts are not bet (and if they are straighten them). Also, check the wires going into the bottom/back of the assembly and bulb casing. I know these are standard procedures, but many people overlook them thinking that can't be it. Just try it, because it requires no money and you can't go wrong. Just trying to help.

Sounds like you fried your harness

Could be that you burned the harness, I had the same exact problem until I noticed that the plug itself (the holes where the prongs go)had melted. Make sure you still have the holes where you plug the bulbs. You may need to replace the harness'.
