power windows/low beams 200

All of the sudden, my power window stopped working along withthe back-up lights. I know that they are on the same line and looking at how hard the back-up switch is, I am hesitant to satr ripping things out.
Next, my low beam driver side is out but when I go to high beam, it comes on.
I figure it is a grounding problem and maybe a back-up switch.
Question: Are there groundig wires specifically for these applications that are exposed to the elements that may be the culprit and
Are there any tricks to replacing the back-up switch?
Thanks

Need info - stick or autobox? 200

Back-up switch differ with tranny type.

Low beam problem - you have the quad-four square lights, right?

The low beam bulbs are dual filament, low and high. Your low filament is burnt out, high beam still OK. Do you have a "Bulb out" warning light on the dash?

Good Luck,

Bob

PS. Be sure to replace the headlight bulb with the same brand and type (halogen or whatever).

I have the quad headlights but I thought there was only one filament per light.Yes the bulb out warning light is on.
I'll try cleaning the fusebox and see what happens but will attempt any ideas floating out there
