Headlights aren't working.
#13
for the first 3 years mine worked well with the ahl sensor...then all the sudden it stopped working (one light would be off), put a resistor in it and bam it worked...i had mine come loose and would sometimes work and after i secured it its been good ever since

Generally the problems are two types the first being a rough surface on the lens of the headlight, caused by road debris. It can also be tiny cracks in the plastic lens, caused by heat damage from the sun or the bulbs.
If the surface is rough, the lens can be fixed. If the lens is smooth, but full of tiny cracks, it is not fixable. To fix the rough surface, you need to sand down the headlights, starting with 400 grit, and then work yourself up with 800, 1000, 1500, 2000 grit sandpaper. Then go over it with some polishing compound and it should be clear as glass.
