Older Ford products [late '80's/early '90's] had chronic problems with burning up either the headlight switch or the connector. Sold a lot of both when I worked at the dealership, but I don't know if that carried over to the '97-up F-150's. [From the problems as you describe 'em, I'm betting it's the switch.]
