23T..Headlights keep blowing my fuse. It appears that the contacts that the harness connect to are tilted, and may be touching the socket housing, which I think is grounding out the harness, and causing the fuse to blow. If i disconnect the headlight harness from the headlights, the fuse is OK.. Is this a known problem that others have dealt with, and if so what is the fix. Are the contacts replaceable? Thanks..Tommy

Are you talking about the connector on the end of the harness or the part in the headlight itself? In either case both are replaceable. https://www.modeltford.com/item/6592X.aspx and https://www.modeltford.com/item/6574X.aspx If the sleeve in the headlight is bent, you should be able to straighten it.

The part in the headlight. Wow, I can't believe all the parts that are available. Thanks John..
