| Description of the problem | The headlight switch does not always turn on the headlamps. We have to switch it back and forth several times, and sometimes it only turns on parking lights, sometimes only fog lights, and eventually headlamps will turn on. It is not consistent of when and where the switch will work and how many times it takes to switch it back and forth to turn on. Since this issue started happening - we have experienced the headlamps actually turning off during driving in the dark. Luckily they have come back on if i mess with the switch - but this is dangerous and it is not consistent when it happens either. I have also had the fog lights flicker on and off while driving even though i do not have the switch pulled out for them to come on at all. *tt |
