it sure is looking like the switch.
I have parking lights. I have head lights, just not at the same time! |

I searched for my old headlight switch from my 89 with plans on cutting it apart for a look-see. Could not find it, which is strange because I don't throw away old parts!
I suspect the problem will be the switch. Sorry couldn't I help. Joel |

I have been over the Helm FSM back and forth... and there isn't even an entry for "headlights turn off parking lights".
The more I dig, the more the switch must be to blame. |

yup.
I forgot to update... I assume it was the switch... about a month after I posted this, the switch broke, again. Internally, just like they away's do. |

Ironically I just read that other post before this one about your problem and that darn switch> the price of those 92-93 switches =OUCH!
I feel your pain>My wife had a 98 Pontiac> seemed like bloody switch broke every few months...Probably same guy designed Pontiac one after Chevy fired him for screwing up the Vette design :-O You'd always hear parts rattling around inside when it broke. At least Autozone eventually started offering lifetime replacement. I'm surprised they still are in business after all the switches we exchanged! |
