So I jumped in my Dak last night and pulled the headlight knob to....
nothing. jiggled the switch and got no flicker. tried high beams and I
had them. couldn't get the low beams to light.
got out, popped the hood, checked for fuses and there's one for both high
and low in the PDC and that's it. and it was good. tried the lights
again, and they worked. got in to drive and they didn't.
did a little more playing and found that it's the column harness - with
the wheel all the way up my low beams work. if I tilt it I don't get
them.
Who's been in a gen III column? Is it a "pigtail" harness for the column
that's easilly replaced? If one wire is bad will they all be
nearly gone wherever that pinch point is, or should I just patch the
break in the one known bad and call it a day?
This just happened last night and I had to be up early so I didn't pull my
FSM out yet to look at anything, but I'd appreciate any experience you
have to share.
