2005 CLK55 AMG HEAD LIGHT PROBLEM

My left headlight keep turning off (about 1 second) and on while driving. Anyone has this problem before? I unpluged the connector inside and reconnect, but the problem's still persist.

I used to have the same problem in 2006. Dealer ended up replacing the whole headlight assembly I am not sure if it was necessary or not but I didnt have the issue since then.
