Another headlight/switch thread.....
Hey guys,
I've looked through 15 pages of search results but can't seem to find an issue quite like mine.
I haven't had a chance to check a few things I've read today like checking various connectors, but here's my problem:
One time, getting into the XJ at night, I pulled my light switch and no headlights, no parkers, no dash, no low, no high (tail lighrts and indicators ok all round). Did some reading and decided I had a switch issue and ordered a switch from Rockauto.
When installing the new switch, while pushing the rod back into place, I heard a loud arc just as it clipped into place. What happens now is, as I pull the rod out, the parkers and dash lights will flash on just before the rod clicks into the parker position, same if I pull further out to low beam position...the parkers will flash and then go out again as the rod clicks into normal position. No low beams. If I pull and hold the high beam switch, the high beams will work.....then go out again when i let go of the lever. I can carefully push/pull the rod and get it to stop at the point where the parkers stay on, but it's not in the correct position.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
