imma put a post up on this cause ive been flooding cyberpoet's inbox...sorry
cyberpoet has walked me threw fixing my headlights. the previous owner had car headlights in there and it melted the sockets and fried a female connector. i tried to replace the connector but couldnt find one small enough so i bypassed the harness and coneected the one wire with a snap connector and then there was light
while giveing the lights a once over they went out so i jiggled things around and tracked down the loose wire to the black harness comeing from the starter switch/engine stop switch. it was also getting fairly hot, i smelt the harness and it smells like it might have been burning, or at one time may have been burnt. im not sure exactly which wire was causeing the problem but ive spent some time with the wireing diagram and there is only one wire that leads to the headlight harness, which is marked in red.
the bulbs that are in there are 60/55
here is the wiring diagram the one wire is marked in red http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/l.../98_wiring.jpg
