95 cherokee headlights flicker on and off after 20 of driving

It seems like after my jeep warms up after a minute of driving along my headlights will flicker off then on and off and on till i pull over and turn them off for a minute then they will be fine for about ten min. Then starts all over again, my fog lights stay on but then again they are wired differently, please help!

Your headlight switch is overheating most likely. That's where the breaker/fuse is.

Best thing to do is add a supplemental headlight harness. Real easy and takes the load off your headlight switch. Not to mention your lights will be about 35% brighter and will no longer flicker out.
