Want this question answered?
There is a foot switch on the driver's floor by your left foot.
I dont know about the '99, but on my '95 the high beams are activated by pulling the turn indicator lever towards the driver. Pushing it forward turns them off again.
Your headlights turn off when you turn the high beams on because you have a defective switch. You need to have a mechanic replace the high beams switch. It is a simple replacement.
Flash your high beams
If the high beam switch is broken that it should be replaced. When the unit is replaced the high beams will work again.
I like to switch around 200-300 feet away from them
Your high beams work but your low beams do not because the switch is broken that switches between high and low beams. Electrical switches wear out.
Check the bulbs and then the multifunction switch (headlight switch)
your bulbs are burnt out. when you switch on the high beams its only the high beams. but when you flash your brights it lights up both high and low beams.
hi-beam switch is faulty
Pull the turn signal lever toward you to switch to high beams and back again Pull the turn signal lever toward you to switch to high beams and back again
sounds like you have a short in the low and hgh beam switch take it to auto electrician
