Help with ED H/lights going out

[TURBO_GHIA]

hey guys

ive got a problem my headlights randomly go out while driving ,ive traced it back to this relay block


when i fiddle with the wires the lights go out ,so im just wondering if you can replace that part it doesnt look like you can ,and where the wires go into the bottom of all the relays is there a trick to getting them out ive gently pulled on them but they wont come out ?? any ideas

and also i found this little thing

any one know what it is ,it looks like its been shorting out or something ,it's a bit burnt and very hot to touch some times ??

well if you can help me out that would be great


cheers jarrod

The last pic is the offending part its a circuit breaker of sorts, get a new one should solve all your problems.

probably not a bad idea to change the relay as well. that was causing my high beams to randomly go out. i bought the relay from repco

Check the female side of the relay block, they can sometimes spread a little and not make proper contact with the male terminals. I had the same problem a while back, pushed the female fins a touch closer together with a small screwdriver and done the job.

hey well i pulled it apart and found this

now my only consurn is the middle wire the prongs on the actual relay there are only four but the the bottom there are 5 wires ??? so i dont understand are there relays with 5 prongs ?? or am i missing something??

well i cleaned it all up pushed the terminals together to get a better contact and cleaned the resetting circut breaker so i'll see how it goes

your battery terminal is awful close to the body there....

I'll put my money on the circuit breaker.. it should slot into the side of the relay block..

As Dellboy said.. About $27 from Ford, less from a wrecker or auto shop..
