My headlights and interior lights have had a slight flicker for a while which has gotten worse recently.
I think this broken ground strap may be the problem. Has anyone changed this before?
Unfortunately it’s riveted to the hood so I can’t remove it easily. I see a hole were I could try to attach a new ground strap and I can just drill into the area were the other end of the existing ground strap is anchored.
I’d appreciate advice if anyone has repaired or replaced one of these before. If I install a new one I’ll make sure to document it as I can see this becoming more common due to the age of our vehicles. Thanks.
