RE: 86 4kqcs headlight switch



	The same thing happened to my '864kq SEVERAL times.  I decided the switch 
couldn't handle the current from both the headlights and parking lights.  I 
got a rear defrost switch out of the junk yard, put it in one of the blank 
slots, and used it to switch the wires for the parking/dash lights.  Now 
the number one position on the headlight switch does nothing.  I use the 
defrost switch for parking lights and the two position switch for 
headlights.  I've had no problems since, and that was several years ago.  I 
know the ultimate fix would be a relay system, I will eventually get to 
that.  Now I can put the car in "Stealth" mode where I can leave my 
headlights on and turn off my tail lights.  Hope this helps.
