I've got a 98 Dodge that after its run for a while.The lights flash intermitantly. There is no pattern. I have traced it past the light switch. So it's not the switch. It does it on both high and low beam. It also blows the marker light fuse now and then. Please help. It's driving me nuts.

I've never worked on one of theese, but it sounds like you got a short to power, check near the battery, I've seen battery acid eat harnesses.

check the bulkhead connector where the headlight circuit passes through the firewall. Fairly common for the connection to corrode green and rot off.
