Could the bulbs be toast from the fuse blowing? 120-130 1967

Hello,

The headlight circuit of your 122 does NOT have a fuse. The running lights are fused, but the headlights are not fused unless someone added a high amperage fuse or added a relay.

Try cleaning the contacts at the black plastic harness connecter under the hood along the left front inner fender just before the core support. The contacts are exposed and can build up enough corrosion to interfere with proper electron flow.
