Those headlight connectors and crimped wires like to corrode and lose continuity. A poor connection causes additional heat which in turn causes the connection to arc and generate more heat - a vicious circle until the current flow is completely lost.

Check the wiring and the female spade connectors. The weak link may be hidden inside the plastic insulator.
