Default More Gremlins?

I've been having to flick my light switch on and offa few times in order to get my right low beam to turn on every few times I start my car at night.

Yesterday my lights wouldn't turn on at all, and I had to turn the car off then on to get them both to come on.

Is it the bulb itself, or is this more likely to be electrical?

might be something wrong with the ballast, but I know nothing about electrical stuff so its hard for me to say.

Did you feed your car after midnight again....




but anyways, does the symbol come on when they go out atleast? I would try swapping bulbs and pray that works.

Yes, the bulb with a line through it comes up.


The light comes on most of the time though.

Have you check the connections yet? Could be a simple bad contact.

Haven't done anything yet.
I didn't car about it until I had to turn the car of and back on.
Before that I just flicked the switch a few times, not a big deal.

The switch is pretty easy to take out, just push it in, turn it, pull it back out, or drop the bolster and tackle it that way.The replacement for the whole switch is around 60 I think, you could try that, if it doesnt fix it, return it or hock it on the forums :-)
