To be honest I think using search and the knowledgebase is simple enough to use. :smt102

Both mitsiclub and the Oz forum use the format of breaking things down into subforums and ya sure its great and makes everything easier to browse sometimes but then again more stuff to browse and look through makes things more complicated a lot of the time.

Sometimes its easier to just have it all in one section the way we do and are used to at this stage.

Cleaning the connection may help slightly but a burned electrical connection is prone to problem like what you're experiencing. Try and get a new connection or get one from a breakers yard to solder into place.

Are you sure the bulbs are actually blowing and the connection isn't just faulty?
