I concur had exactly the same on mine turned out to be push contacts for the starter, so used fibre glass pen to clean them up which worked a treat and hasn't played up again YET!!
But the Headlamp was a real pain and I'm not sure what cured it as there were problems with the Fuse Holders which I cleaned and seemed to cure it, then it happened again which I blamed myself for badly routing the Cables in the Headlamp and possible earthing issues.
All in all a real pain. Best of luck with yours.
