As I recall the tech said as he was hot testing the connector, he said "some of them look pushed in"...is that fixable?
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

none/none - it's really odd it's BOTH sides, same symptom!! If I disconnect them, then reconnect, the passenger side works for about 30 seconds, then stops, drivers side...nothing
Have you checked the sockets where the Litronics plug in?
Sometimes a wire connector can get pushed out of the main connector - or worse someone broke the connector. This is the part that stays in the car when you remove the headlight assembly.
Thanks Loren, I had the car at Ruf and they were needing to replace the whole housing ($1914). Who would you suggest to re-seat, if in fact that's the problem?
Take it someone with an electrical pin removal/insertion tool (about a $50 tool).
They should be able to reinsert any pins in the socket - as long as the socket or the socket mount are not broken.
If the socket mount is broken then you will need to replace the housing (or reach behind and plug in the headlight by hand).
I don't mean to hijack this thread, but any ideas on why one headlight would sporadically turn on/off (when lights are turned on), especially when going over bumps? thanks
