Hakachukai,
I spent some time under the hood last night. I started with all the connections from the battery to fuse box and all surrounding areas. Everything was clean and tight. Moved to the inside of the car and was checking the area G401 with the cluster of ground wires that you mention on the wiring schematic located slightly above the left kick panel by the OBDII port connector. Sure enough the 6 mm factory painted red headed bolt was so loose you could have stuck an 1/8" spacer in between the wiring cluster and the bolt. I tightened it down snug onto the connectors. I am very comfortable that that was my intermittent once a month loss of headlights and blower motor console power problem. You were spot on this one. Great job troubleshooting it just by looking at the wiring diagram. I could have spent a week looking for it and never found it. I'm obviously not as electrically sharp at looking at wiring diagrams as I need to be. I am just amazed that I didn't have more problems in the previous 354,000 miles. You could tell by looking at the bolt that it had never been tightened from the factory 18 years ago. Thank you very much. After that success story I'm going to re-post with a sporadic idling problem that's driving me crazy. Thanks again for being part of this knowledge sharing team and forum.
