Put dielectric grease around the connector, and use a dab of RTV to make sure it doesn't slide apart and rust.

All my lights went out one night on a mountain road cause one of the poles rusted through on mine.

Also what caused a light issue with me was the silicone boot on the hella conversion headlights. Caused the connector to come loose all the time
