Default Electrical Work

Hi All,

Last night while I was driving one of my headlights (passenger side) suddenly dimmed. I went and replaced the globe but it was still dim comparing to the RH one.
Swapped the two relays and still the same.
Then looked at the fuses (in the engine bay fuse box) and one of them was blown. Put another one in, looked at the headlight and it's bright again. Then I just touched the headlight connector and the fuse blew again (went through 2 fuses).
Now to the point. I need an auto electrician to replace that plug harness. I looked in the workshops thread but no sparkys listed there. Does anyone know a good one, and possibly a mobile one?
I will order the part from Subaru tomorrow once the parts dept is open.

tl;dr Anyone know an auto electrician, preferably mobile one.

Thanks,

Adi

I am not an auto sparky but I am good with a soldering iron and have a few spare looms here. I could swap a plug out for you on the weekend for $30?

I would just like to now add that it was the actual plug. Corrie replaced it and now it's all good. Thank Corrie!
