What is wrong with the headlights of a 1988 Ford Bronco II if they work sometimes but mostly not?

POSSIBLY A LOOSE GROUND WIRE AT LEAST THAT IS WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR ON MINE,GOOD LUCK! The most likely cause on the late 80's Bronco & Ranger for headlight problems is the failure of the Dimmer switch connection. I had to completely replace the connector & switch on my '88 Bronco II to resolve the problem.

If your 1991 Nissan won't start doesn't even turn over and you just replaced the battery and alternator 3 months ago what could be the problem and if it is the starter how do you replace it myself?

don't be so quick blaming the starter you need to check the starter relay, your neutral safety switch,your ignition switch,your conections. your grounds. starter solenoid. if all that is good then look at the starter. they're pretty simple to replace the hardest part sometimes is getting to it ,but once you there is a piece of cake.(don't forget how the wiring goes) here is a simple test to determing what or where the problem lies. is called the headlight start test. turn on your headlights,try to start the car(have someone do it) look at the headlights if the go dim you may have high resistance somewhere in the circuit.(bad solenoid ,starter motor) if the headlights stay bright then you have an open in the circuit. which simply means bad neutral safety switch,relay,poor ground.(not the starter)

Why are the headlights remaining on after a 1991 Dodge Caravan engine is turned off?

I am having the same problem with a 1994 model. The high beam indicator is also on. I believe it is related to the daytime running lights because when I turn on the headlights the lights get brighter. As I understand it daytime running lights are the highbeams at about 50% power. I need to find where that relay is and test/replace it. wish me luck...
