Erik,
 Check your front lenses for a builup of moisture.  This may be a source
of the the problem.  Mine started to do the same thing but no bulb was
burned out.  Mine started to hold water which caused the socket to start
to corrode.  If they are, try some RTV around the edge of the lense or
drill a very small hole in the bottom to allow it to drain.
