Ford Repair: 94 ford taurus headlights, ford taurus, 1994 ford taurus


Question
I have a 1994 Ford Taurus Station Wagon.  We have replaced both bulbs w/ new ones because the right high and low beam bulb blew (shattered).  About a wk. later the right one, high and low beam went out again.  There is some moisture that is visible through the lens and someone was telling me that, that is what it is from.  There is visible moisture through both headlights, not just the right one but the left headlight has not blown at all, just the left one.  What is making the right headlight blow and not the left one because both seem to be in the same condition.  Is it the water splashing up against a hot bulb and making it burst?  And if it is then why is the other bulb not blowing also?  What do you recommend I do?

                   Thank You,

water or moisture could cause the problem.another problem people have when changing bulbs,id TOUCHING them when they install them. if you touch the bulb it will cause it to blow.another cause is you have a short in the wiring going to that light.look at the wires at the socket that you put the bulb in, alot of times the wire goes bad there.if you need more help fell free to write back.hope this helps.
