    Help, Headlight switch

    Today my headlight switch started acting up again and this is my 4-5th headlight switch i mind you that i have gone through.

    Symptoms:

    Cluster lights work but only full brightness
    Dash lights turn off when i try to dim.
    OBC went out and wont light up (light bar works fine)
    --------------------

    Yes it is a short most likly but i have tried figuring out where it could come from to no avail, did i miss something?

    I thought i tightened that parking brake console bolt too tight but thats not the problem this time, no odd smells and switch is not hot/warm, no smoke.

    Im stumped on this i dont know what i should do this time around.

    Please help me out i would really like to get this bug fixed.

      possibly but they are the same lense as the old ones but yellow and a bit smaller length wise. :?
