The gremlins are back.
After not being able to get the bright lights to click on on last week I cleaned the contacts on the silver relay under the hood and it seemed to fix the problem.
But, this morning I turned on the lights and when I tried to go from bright to dim, it would not switch, it stayed on bright.
I pulled the dimmer switch and heard the clicking under the hood from the silver relay. Also while the brights were stuck on, I pulled the dimmer switch back a few times and noticed the lights went off completely while I had the switch pulled back towards me. After about 3 seconds of holding the switch back towards me, the lights would pop back on in bright mode.
I played with it for a while, and then after a few minutes I noticed that when I pulled the dimmer switch back towards me, the lights would not die for a few seconds, but burned bright the whole time.
So I am stuck on bright now, the dimmer switch is inoperable. I pull it, the silver relay under the hood clicks, but it does nothing to the headlights at all.
Switch on stalk or relay inside the car, or something else?
