99 Ford Escort Headlight Problem
99fordescort 10 April 2005 05:27:49
	My wife drives a 1999 ford escort and has been having a problem with the passenger side headlight. The ground wire (black color) has been heating up and gets hot enough to melt the plastic connecting socket and the wire insulation--sometimes the bulb will fry. The other wires are fine. I am on my third headlight harness. I have made sure that the connecting socket is tight, used electric grease, checked for corrosion and made sure the ground is good. It never blows any fuses. I am stumped as to why a ground wire would heat up like this. THe car was wrecked on the same side by the previous owner. Is there anyway I can isolate the ciruit to the light so this doesnt happen? I dont want to have to chase around the main wiring harness.
