Headlight Problem

[White Dog_imp]

Just an FYI, if your hi beam dash light shines when your switch is on low beam, that is a warning that the 3 prong wire connector is not making proper connection to the headlight bulb. Thus, the bulb will not light up. I changed bulbs recently and pushed the connector too far onto the bulb and experienced this. Removal of the connector and slightly bending the parallel prongs on the bulb created enough tightness to eliminate this problem.

Thanks for the heads up

Thanks for that, also keep in mind bulbs do burn out. If your high-beam indicator doesn't come on, the bulb has failed. Happens. Quite a bit of vibration going on up there.
