Defect

Current flowing through the headlight circuit during normal operation damages the affected elements, causing the headlights to fail. In the worst case, the lighting system fuse blows and all lights on the vehicle become inoperative.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the headlights with the corrected parts.
