Description of the problem | When i drive my soul in the dark with my headlights on they start flickering and then they just go completely out. Sometimes it's small flickering and sometimes it is completely out and dont come back on for several seconds. Today i had to turn them off and back on twice before they would come back on at all. This is extremely dangerous when it is dark. Especially driving on a curvy 2 lane highway in the dark like i do. At first it happened when i used my turn signal, but now i dont have to do anything and they flicker and then go on and off. |
