I think I have a ground gremlin so I need the collective mind. The dash has been completely rewired and all the lights work. Except the passenger's side headlight. What? well if I disconnect that headlight the driver's side stays on like it should BUT if I reconnect it, first the passenger's side and then both will begin to blink so I think it's a ground. BUT where is the ground? The wiring diagram shows that the headlights ground (14g) and "other" (18g) grounds are connected at a single place that is a (10g) ground that I can't find. I tend to discount that ground because all the other lights work. It's only that one headlight, I have replaced it with a known good working headlight and it does the same blinking thing so the $22 question is - HELP Embarassed Fire away with any possible fixes and I'll try them. I seem to remember that there was a similar situation mentioned on the forum but I can't find it now.
