Low beams only stay on for 20 seconds

THANKS for sharing! Although the chore truck has been super reliable
this winter, there *is* room for improvement with the grounding. (In
particular, G101 (to the sheet metal adjacent to the battery) will no
longer tighten as it should:

And while I'm at it, I'm going to upgrade G112 & G113 on the front, G404
near the fuel pump, and G401 out by the backup lights. And if I clean/service
G202 under the dash, that will be (6) less places I will have to worry about while
out on the open road.

Those conductive rivet studs look to be a worthwhile upgrade. I've been looking
for a no-kidding way to implement a 2024 ground distribution scheme into my
'99 chore truck, and now I know how I'm going to do just that.

(Insert tip of the hat to AuroraGirl for sharing those neat grounding rivets.)

Good stuff.

these are on my f150 so go forder

but you may recognize that one copper/brass wire on the back of that stud.. lol... gm side post ground down so its flat. I had removed some paint behind it so it makes contact, and I also have too many washers and things going on there, but temporary since the original furd wires failed and sucked anyway. The other one is the core support. That one also failed and I used a rivnut and a machine screw + washer to hold that ring terminal. thats for the ECM. I need to check the voltage drop and ground credibilty on these sometime.
