So this morning when I went to turn on the lights, all I got were the front side and rear marker and parking lights, no headlights. Thought that's odd, flipped the high beam switch and they came on and flipped it back to low beam and the headlights stay on like nothing is wrong, but after I turn the lights off and back on again I have to flip the low/high beam switch to get them to turn on.
My guess is one of the switches is going bad. Which one though? My thought since they turn on when I flip the low/high beam switch on the turn signal lever they work, is the turn signal & low/high beam assembly is bad or would it be the regular light switch itself behind the knob in the dash? Any certain way to really tell?
