I live in a highly populated area for deer! when i try to put my bright lights on the switch does not work. i try adjusting the wheel and pullingback on the switch and nothing. has this happened to anyone else before? is it an easy reapair? i dont want to take it to a shop cuz they charge out the ***!

thanks

 

It's always possible (although somewhat unlikely) that both high beams are burned out. You can check if the highbeam switch is working by turning on your headlights and foglights then switching to high beam - the fog lights should go off even if the high beam lights don't go on. If they don't then you should suspect the switch or one of the wires connected to it.

 

i switched our the lights with a friends to check the other day. so i know its not the lights. i think its the switch becuase my friends makes like a cllick noise when you pull it back to turn on brights. and mine does nto make any noise at all.

 

okay than it is the switch , its gotten stuck somehow, check to see whats obstructing it

 

I had a little plastic linkage pop out in mine. It was at the end of the lever and connected the lever to the rod that runs down the column to the switch, i just popped the pieces back together.

 

thanks ill look at it over thanksgiving break.

 

I have a similar problem. My brights don't come on, but the fog lights do go off when I pull the lever back, the dash illuminates as well, but no high beams. I don't know if the bulbs are burned out, or what else it could be?

 

Found my problem. My lights and switches are fine, but after some investigation under the hood, it appears that the connection is corroded pretty good on the light, but I still managed to reconnect the wires, and now they work again.
