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.

Jeep Cherokee L6-4.0L - Pre-purchase Car Inspection - Houston, Texas

Andrew showed up on time and ready to work. Very processional, knowledgeable, and thorough. He saved me from a critical breakdown. While inspecting the vehicle he started the car and let it run while the hood was up. After 5 minutes of idling the belt started smoking and the a/c compressor froze up. ( I had a mechanic replace it the day before and I was concerned that the work wasn't done right). Andrew detected 2 major oil seal leaks, nuts not re-installed on my transmission line causing a leak in fluid, rear transmission leak. He took pictures and showed them to me verifying his findings. I feel fortunate to have had him come out. He is a Honest Mechanic, and I Highly recommend him on Your Mechanic

Alex was great. He was earlier than expected and finished very quickly. He was polite. He explained what he would do and why we had the problem in the first place. He was not pushy. I appreciate this type of service.
