My headlight switch is broken, help

[DropTop_Stang]

My stupid button is fucked. Something happened and now it works in two stages, sortt of. It's like I have to play with it to get my dash lights and my headlight on at onece. And like 15 minutes into driving it starts flashing between the two and then shuts off. If i leave only one of them on it doesn't do it. Also, vibrations seem to have nothing to do with it. I had to drive home without dash lights, and consequently my tail lights. HELP!!!

take it apart, see if any of the wire connections are loose in the harness.

Dude mine does the exact same thing.

I have to get it in the right spot for my dash lights to work when the headlights are turned on..

and my tail lights dont work either unless I can get it in the sweet spot.

You got to take it out and take a picture of it and we can point you to the exact problem if u cant find it

okay got it fixed, real bad short, very common apparently, melts the housing, buy a new switch and housing and replace

[Brent]

Good to know

[DropTop_Stang]

ohh, Brent. When you replace the switch. Don't pull on it hard. It'll come off in your hand. Took me forever to try and get it back on.
