    Hey just recently a headlight of mine died out, it about 6 months old. I flicked it once and it turned on, but when i put my headlight housing back in it was done again. So i took it out and flicked it some more, i could see sparks inside but i didnt light up this time. Is the bulb trash?

    probably the filament inside moving around and making contact every now and again. You need a new bulb.
