[urq] headlight difficulties take 2....

[MICHAEL CUNNINGHAM]

well  i spent a little time today trying to figure out my headlight problem. To get everyone up to speed, I sort of lost my low beams. They're on but almost like they are in city mode (which I have never had) with high beams fine. everything seems to be working fine until today. The virus had climbed into the switch that engages the lights from low to high beam. I didn't get the "click" that would suggest the beam has been changed. By pressing on the lever hard enough I could get high beams to engage but not to stay engages. This suggest that the high beam switch part # 855 953 819 B which is the wiper switch or 855 953 513 which is the actual turn signal lever are not doing their job. Has I pulled the high beam switch toward me a small "crack" let lose and a small piece of plastic popped out. Not sure if its a stop of some sort for the high beam lever or what but I'm guessing I'm gonna have to pull the steering wheel and check it out. Any BTDT's? both myself and other agree that a
 faulty ground couldn't take both low beams out at the same time seeing as they are ground individually. My second guess was a relay until the whole engaging the high beams problem happened now I'm focusing on the switches in the steering wheel. If Eric Harten or Jim are reading this chances are I will not make it for the Urq BBQ GTG this Saturday seeing as I need to get the lights working so I can get a emission sticker : (
