I knew it was too easy or good to be true. While driving home tonight it was getting dark, so I turned on my headlights. It was a very short drive, but when I pulled in the garage, I didn't see the headlights. When I looked at the front, the drivers was off and the passenger side was extremely dim (worried a short). I looked at the ammeter and it was showing huge draw. Shut down the switch, disassembled the drivers headlight and the screw on the back side is smoking hot, and the wiring inside was wrapped around the socket and extremely hot. With the bulb pulled on the drivers side turned on low beam and passenger came on normal, then dim. Disconnected the drivers side and the passenger is solid no issues. Will likely have to pull socket to see where potential short is(I remembered seeing somewhere these sockets can be troublesome). It does appear to be a newer socket. Maybe rewiring with extra heat shrink to ensure no short circuits??
