NHTSA Complaint #10400308 — 2006 CHEVROLET CORVETTE

WHILE DRIVING, AT NIGHT, BOTH LOW-BEAM HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT SIMULTANEOUSLY AND COULD NOT BE SWITCHED BACK ON. I USED THE FOG LIGHTS TO DRIVE HOME ON SURFACE STREETS. I LATER DETERMINED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS AN INTERMITTENT CONNECTION IN CIRCUIT NO. 1970, WITHIN THE MAIN FUSE/RELAY BACKPLANE ITSELF. THE CIRCUIT OPENS AT OPERATING TEMPERATURES, BUT WORKS WHEN THE CAR FUSE BOX IS COLD, MAKING DIAGNOSIS MORE DIFFICULT. THE BACKPLANE CANNOT BE SERVICED AND MUST BE REPLACED.
