I have done several searches and I have a few questions:
I have a M35A3 that I am going through headlights like crazy on. At first, from the searches I have done, I suspected a possible ground problem. I have been through the wiring and everything seems fine. Voltage, grounds, etc.
I then directed my attention to the vibration possibly damaging the lights at idle. After reading the TM's, I discovered that my idle was a bit low, less than the 750-850rpm recommended. I adjusted that to the TM. I lost both headlights after about 6 months. There are pieces of the filament rolling around inside the lamp assembly.
Are some headlights better than others (i.e. more heavy duty)?
Would LED headlights be a better option?
Am I even on the right track![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Thanks!
