Headlight dimming

1
Morning all,

looking for some suggestions re Headlights that dim on and off. Affects low beam, high beam and instruments. Every 20 seconds or so they lose maybe 30 - 40 % brightness and then come back again after about 10 seconds. Had an auto sparky have a look and he thought he had fixed it by cleaning some terminals
but not.

I'm thinking either dodgy earth somewhere or maybe headlight switch ? Anyone else seen this issue ?

Mark

Never mind the headlights where are you? Nice waves, and all yours by the looks of it

Hey Mark don't know much about the lighting system and electrics but is there a relay that could cause this or the feed to the relay from or to the fuse
Best Regards from ssc Pete
