What is the Headlight Switch all about?

The headlamp switch allows you to turn on the lights. If the switch does not work, you will not be able to turn on the lights. Not only is it unsafe to drive the car without proper lights, but it is also illegal.

Keep in mind:

  • The switch may only be available at the dealer. YourMechanic will find the cost and availability from a local dealer.
  • Your vehicle may have a combination switch, which combines the headlight switch and turn signal switch in one assembly.

How it's done:

  • Inspect the switch.
  • Test the fuses.
  • Remove and replace the switch if found faulty.
  • Check operation of all vehicle lighting.

Our recommendation:

A mechanic should inspect all the lights in the car during every major service event. If the lights do not come on, the mechanic should inspect the fuse, wiring, and connectors. It is common for the lens to get dirty and not allow enough light to shine through. You should keep the headlamp lens clean and free of oxidation. Mechanics can use a special lens oxidation restorer kit to clean the headlights.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Headlight Switch?

  • Headlamps do not turn on.
  • Running lights do not turn on.
  • Not able to select or deselect high beam operation.

How important is this service?

The headlight switch allows you to turn on and off your headlights. When you press the button or pull the lever (depending on your vehicle) to turn on your headlights, the headlight switch is responsible for triggering the lights. A broken headlight switch means that you won’t be able to turn on your headlights. Driving without headlights is a hazard to you, your passengers, and your surroundings, and it can also result in an expensive ticket.

Acura MDX V6-3.5L - Inspection / Diagnostics - Marina Del Rey, California
I had not described the problem online accurate (partly because of misinfo from the Acura dealer), resulting in a quote that involved far more labor and parts than necessary to solve the problem. Rather than doing the quoted job, David took the time to make an accurate diagnosis. He then opened up the back of whatever you call the thing between the two front seats (I had mistakenly called it the center console), disconnected the electronic gadget that enables rear passengers to control their own climate, and reassembled the whatever. This silenced the noise that had been driving us crazy, pending David coming back and installing a new gadget. (Acura had told me that such a disconnection could not be done, and that I had to replace one or two ventilator motors for between $1200 and $1500.) Your Mechanic's quote for same (although not with Acura parts) was $470. David charged $70 for the diagnostic visit and expects the actual part we need plus installation to be a lot less. In conclusion, David is honest and expert. Based on this visit, we'll be seeing him for all maintenance and repairs. The only box I'm not checking below is "timely," because due to heavy rain snarling the freeways today, David was late arriving, so can't say if he is normally on time.
