Dim Headlights on upper beam ???
<FONT size=2>
I am having problems with the headlights on my daughters 2000 Eclipse </P>
The low beam is ok… However high beam causes the headlights to become very dim. Almost like it is shorting out. Probably getting about 1/3 of the power needed. </P>
I also had to replace the plugs that go to the headlamp bulbs. They had melted. </P>
I am thinking maybe somewhere along the wiring harness the wire to for the upperbeam got hot and melted into the ground wire </P>
Just wanted to see if any of you had a similar problem and if you did how did you repair. </P>
Thanks for your help! </P>

I ran into this problem with my 97. my left head light would almost go OUT when I hit the brights. problem was... bad connection. the wire were just grounded so there would be a little light coming out. I took this to mitsu, DON"T DO THAT! they ran their little comp check s**t for an hour and said." I don't know" good waste of $84. go to a local guy that knows wiring, ended up costing me $184 total. (including the wasted hour of my life)
