VMF Posted February 6, 2004 Share Posted February 6, 2004 i cant really understand what you are trying to stay. first of all please dont type in caps since it means screaming and second please be more specific about the problem you have since its really hard to understand the sequence of your actions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90LS400Lexus Posted February 6, 2004 Share Posted February 6, 2004 Sounds like your headlight switch is bad. I would try locating one at a local salvage lot. Or call your Lexus dealer. They should not cost more than $100 or so. Perhaps more. Parts for these cars can be very expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UCF3 Posted February 6, 2004 Share Posted February 6, 2004 It sounds like a wiring problem, as if you didn't connect the right wire to the right circuit or your high beam wire is loose. I would suggest getting a wiring harness diagram from lexus; you might have to pay for it. Otherwise, you could try getting a new harness, from a salvage yard, or one of the aftermarket retailers or tunershops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKperformance Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 it is more than liekly the headlight switch since it can cut the fog lights off when the high beams are turned on i would say it is miss aligned rather than buying a new peice i would try and clean or adjust it to make the contacts again it may have been a bad arc removing some of the contact and the carbon finally wearing away to get covered up again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
