Sorted I hope! Well I don't see the error today but took another look at the bulb fitment (wire to the resistor) and thought of something... The original bulbs have a nice protective housing around them to protect the bulbs and the bulb socket. With the new ones the bulb socket (which now has a direct feed into the resistor) isn't protected! It was open to the elements which may consist of water or dust hitting it. So I covered the socket part with electrical tape in the hope that will stop me from seeing any future problems and hoping it may just have been what was chasing causing yesterday's problem

Anyone know if the no more nails stuff is heat resistant? I want to use some of it to secure the resistor in place as I still don't like it just dangling there lol
