I can tell when headlights will/won't work by unlocking car sometimes they turn on and won't the next. Went a few days without turning off while driving now they turn on/off whenever. All other lights work just sometimes not the headlights. Will flicker both lights, one would work. Checked fuses and changed turn signal switch.

More then likely you have an issue with what is called the TIPM or Totally Integrated Power Module or a wiring issue. The fact that this is both lights it is most likely the TIPM since there are separate wires for each lamp from the TIPM.

If it were me, I would replace the TIPM and if it continues then you are going to have to start replacing the wiring.

Let me know what questions you have. Thanks
