Driver Side Fog Light Keeps Going Out

I have been having trouble with my driver side fog light on my 99 Expedition. It keeps going out. I did have the 9005 bulbs in and thought it was getting too much heat so I switched back to the stock bulb. Then it happened again & I installed a new socket. It has gone out again & again with different bulbs. The light goes back on when I move the plug around. Do I have a bad ground? Help! Thanks RH

Nope, sounds like you damaged the plug from running a 65 W bulb in something designed for 45 W max.
Might want to get a new 9145 socket, else this problem will keep happening.
