The headlight high beams have never worked on my car. I haven't paid much attention to this short coming until we moved into the Mountains this year.
I've been trouble shooting, and so far I have replaced fuses and the headlight relay because it never 'clicked' when steering column stalk pulled (and because the low-beams quit working last week, too). Low-beams are working again. Current symptons: Low-beams work fine. Pull steering column stalk, new relay clicks and high-beams turn on. Release steering column stalk, high-beams shut off, no low-beams either. Pull steering column stalk again, new relay clicks and low-beams turn back on. Release steering column stalk, low-beams stay on. Anyone here experienced this before? |

Try cleaning the connector on fuse #1 and 2, should have a white wire also a white/blue for fog lights. If the low beams work the same power lead is also used when the relay latches for high beams.
