trouble/w headlights

im having some issues with my headlights intermittently shutting off. sometimes the lights would shut off then after a few minutes it would turn back on. i was thinking possibly the headlight switch is bad or the headlight relay. anyone have this problem before, please help. thanks

Your LKM is in need of some soldering.

See the link below, it's quite easy if you know how to solder.
