Re: Headlight Circuit Breaker Question

In one of the posts in this thread I said I would advise the outcome. Five years later... here it is.

My '50 Custom was invited to attend a private car show this weekend. The show was to end well after dark so I figured that working headlights would be a good idea. Originally I thought the problem might be related to the high beam circuit but further testing in the garage showed that the lights cycled on and off regardless of whether high or low beam was used. I checked all connections and they seemed good and tight, no flaky grounds that I could find so... for less than $4.00 at NAPA it seemed logical to go ahead and replace the 30amp circuit breaker. It only took 15 minutes to replace and it definitely fixed the problem.
