What could be the problem when your headlights and dash lights in your 92 civic have dimmed consederably over the last 2 days?

One possibility is that your aternator is not working properly. If that is the problem you are running on your battery and in a short time it will be dead and the car won't start. Another possibility is you have a short in your wiring. Another possibility is the electrical connections (usually in the light switch) have gotten dirty and some electrical energy is being used getting thru the dirt.

Why would the headlights go out and the light switch get hot on a 1993 Ford Aerostar?
I have a '91 Eddie Bauer and I don't know if my answer applies to a 93 model but get an electrician to check your dip/high beam and indicator unit on the steering column. I replaced mine and the problem of no dimmed headlights was fixed. The light switch always seems to run hot with lights on. Probably a short SOMEWHERE. You have to trace the wires to find it.
If the regular headlights on a Suzuki do not work however the high beams and day lights work fine and the fuses are fine what could be the problem?
humm, This is strange because the DRLs (day time running lights) usually function from the same bulb as the headlights, in other words the headlights are always on so people dont forget to turn their lights on at night so if this is the case you have no problem. The only thing that might indicate a problem would be if the dash lights do not come on when the headlights are on, If this is the case then the turn signal switch could be at fault, otherwise I see no problem with the lights. Granted this could be the case or not but based on the question this is the best diagnosis I can provide, Good luck and I hope this helped
Why do brakelights go off on when the head lights are switched on?
Brake lights should NOT be effected by the headlights. Brake light function is completely independent of the headlights. Assuming you are not refering to the tail lights, or marker lights, which are supposed to come when the head lights are turned on. Not having brake lights when the head lights are on is a big safety problem and should be corrected.
If door switch is not the problem why does dome light stay on?

Check the fuse for the headlights. It is probably open.

Blown fuse or the lights are just blown and need replacing.
