Default High Beam switch

Heres the deal.. I pull the high beam switch back to engage the bights and the lights work but the switch doesn't stay in the high beam mode it jus flashes the lights and goes back to low beams... "I have to literally hold the stinkin high beam switch while I drive" its getting annoying !

If anyone has any idea how to fix this plz let me know..

Sincerely

Wade

Try pulling it a little further until it clicks. The first part of the pull is the "flash to pass" mode.

We have discussed this one many many times before... make sure your headlight dial (the **** to the left of the wheel near the door tweeter) is turned to the upward position, this will engage the bright lights so it will stay on once you pull the stalk...

I don't think it's a problem but by design.
