Thumbs up Headlights didn't work.

For the last month I would hook up a bypass wire between an unused fuse and my headlights anytime I needed them because they suddenly quit working. I could hear relays click when I turned the headlights to the second position, and the lights would pop up, but the headlights wouldn't turn on. After bringing the relay in and sanding the terminals, I decided to take it apart and resolder every joint. Popped it back in and the headlights are back in order. Now I can close my fusebox lid and fold the carpet back forward.

Good job! It's amazing how a little inconvenience can become the mother of invention. Being an electronics idiot, I didn't know if those relays were fixable or not!
