[s-cars] Strange HID light problem

[Tom Green]

The multi-function switch is your most likely culprit, Bob.  I would  
guess
in the high beam selector wiring.  Are the high beams working?

I have read reports of spraying cleaner on the switch without removing
anything, but I doubt that can help much.  The good news is that the
stalk is available from online sources at a reasonable price and the
replacement is not difficult.
