Hello,

This is my first time posting. I have a Volvo V40 "S" Reg. I have recently replaced the D/S headlight (again) for the 3rd time in as many weeks.

I have noticed this time that the plastic 3 pin connector that connects to the back of headlight has melted.

I am wondering if there is a too higher rated fuse in the circuit somewhere? I guess that there is a lot of heat though the wire etc. to melt the plastic block. I have replaced the D/S headlight bulb with a double long life bulb from Halfords last night and noticed it had blown again this morning.

Please can someone help. Many thanks.
