I replaced it twice now in the past week both times after a rain storm. Is the problem the water that may be in the because or maybe oils from installing the lights or a short. help

moisture to get in to it or a bad ground wire will because it to draw less power than it needs and because it to blow out like that also,check the ground wire real good on it,good luck.

you have a leak in the headlight assembly and water is to get in and blowing the bulb. you have to replace the whole part, which is a paince because you must loosen or remove the bumper. good luck and I hope I helped.
