94LexusES Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Alright i have an extremely sensitive headlight switch. Any touch to the switch when the lowbeams are on, i hear a click near the passengers side airbag and the headlights shut off. Its hard to describe, but sometimes its left me in complete darkness . It used to be easy to deal with until this morning in the rain they just wouldnt stay on, they'd just flicker off. A mechanic told me its the switch arm that needs to be replaced, but im not so sure of it. Maybe a relay? No clue, any help?
steviej Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 Anything? sounds like something is shorting out, most likely in the swicth. steviej
94LexusES Posted October 1, 2006 Author Posted October 1, 2006 I can literally flicker the lights without even turning the switch to off. Something i forgot to mention, when they turn off, the parking lights are on.
94LexusES Posted October 2, 2006 Author Posted October 2, 2006 Its getting worse and worse haha. I haven't been driving the lexus because of it, its probably just going to die in the driveway. Haha.
94LexusES Posted October 3, 2006 Author Posted October 3, 2006 Yeah it couldn't be anything else? SKPerformance, Toysrme?
SKperformance Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 If you move the switch then it pops the relay off then it would be the most prevalent issue to deal with the switch first.
94LexusES Posted October 9, 2006 Author Posted October 9, 2006 Yeah i have an appointment at Lexus for the 21st. But thats to get the 3 VSV's changed, most likely anyway. I'll ask them about the switch and how much it is. Theres alot wrong with this car, its really annoying im getting rid of it as soon as possible.
