I believe I have a grounding issue with the headlights on my 98 Cherokee Sport (especially the right-hand one). Can anyone tell me where the ground for the headlights is physically located? I found a couple of grounding points on the inside left fender, and cleaned them up, but that is apparently not it. Thanks!

No, the right one goes from off to bright and everywhere in between. I can verify voltage changes at the headlight. Also, with lights on, the high beam and right turn indicators come on, and the right turn signal doesn't blink (stays on solid). This goes away when the lights are off.

This is the location of the headlamp grounds. Located on left wheel well liner, near the PCM. Both left and right headlamps are grounded here.
