Several months ago, while driving at night a few times the headlights winked out for a second.
While it happened the high beam indicator came on.
When it first happened, it happened so fast, I wasn't even sure that it happened at all.
Hasn't happened in months but just occurred again tonight.
Happened 3x on a 20 min drive.
Normally I wouldn't worry too much, but we are slated to leave on a road trip tomorrow.
Out to the coast, 3 days and 2500km each way.
For what it's worth, over the past week in preparation, all the grounds have been cleaned and the power points too.
Also checked the column connectors while I was in there, as I changed out the instrument pack for one with a tach.
Running like a champ but this ghost is most troubling,
not sure if he is just messing with me or giving fair warning.
It can't be the fuse box as it is the whole circuit.
The winking of the beam indicator is most troubling too, what's up with that, another symptom to boot?
In fact all the main fuses under the pass seat were replaced, along with ALL the fusible links and I've rechecked them since.
Has anyone experienced a similar ghost?
An occasional wink out I can live with but if I lose everything while driving, that surely wouldn't be good,
oh no it would not.
Just prior to this happening we had one occurrence of the dreaded no-start,
but several tries later it connected and caught.
No more did it happen, with several more stops
But this winking is troubling, oh yes it is troubling.
Also seem to have Dr Suess stuck in my head,
the rhyming is driving me right round the bend.
