Figity Headlight and Fog?

hey guys,
i just got pulled over for my headlight being out. The officer just gave me a repair order but was trying 2 get my tint buy he didnt have a tint meter on him! My headlight went out about 2 days ago but if i give it a few slams of the fist it come right back on. I have Sylvania Silverstars for the headlights. The fog is the same way, just need a little TLC Do you know why the headlight could be going out like it is? I was about 2 order some new bulbs (Nokya) and upgrade the harness. Do you think this will fix the problem? What could cause it to short out then when i wack it to come right back on? Its who knows.

Thanks

Sean

I think its just a sign the bulbs are on the way out - dodgy filment

Sometimes you can get the filament to connect, and heat up enough to melt back together for a short period of time. It could be falty wiring too. Check both. An upgraded harness always helps overpowered bulbs.
