Decided to make another thread for my headlight problem since I need a solution asap and the Lighting section hardly gets any attention.

Here is the original thread:

Anyone know what this stuff is thats inside my headlight plug? Is it supposed to be there?

 

its old dielectric compound, if that were the cause, your headlights wouldnt work period

and it most likely wouldnt be both sides

pull your bulbs out and check if the filament is dirty/damage (if you had a multimeter, check for any continuity.

a more likely cause is the combination light switch behind the steering wheel

 

combo swithc. grounds, bulbs abnd fuses. check alll those and let us know
