occassionally my headlight will pop off for a second or two. it happenned about 3-4 times so far. i'll turn the headlight switch on the left side of the steering wheel a little bit and that will turn them back on. is there a switch behind the knob that goes bad or something like that? anything like the brake light switch problem? i don't believe it's the wiring, though i really don't know, but hopefully it's just something like a headlight switch? any help would be great.
 






i did a little searching and saw that it could be the multi-function switch. the only thing i'm confused about is that this switch is located by the turn-signal lever. i would think my problem would be coming from the slide switch area where you actually turn the headlights on from. is there a switch behind that too that i should replace?
 












Check to make sure your fuses are seated properly. Besides that, it could be either the headlight switch or the multifunction stalk. I never had to replace either so I don't know for sure what the next step should be. Good luck!
