I am having problems with the signals and passenger headlights. I have changed both signals on my car 3 times within the last 2 months. I installed new signal bulbs on both sides they will start working again then quit working working then they quit working. I am having the same problem with the passenger headlight?

We need to start with checking the voltage at each of these bulbs just to make sure it is not more then 12.6 volts.

Here is a guide that will help with this:

If the voltage is not high then we may have corrosion causing the bulbs to short and blow.

If this is what you find then we need to replace that socket. Here is a video that will show you how to do this:

Let's run through this info and let us know what you find and we can go from there.
