Chris2012 Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 Headlights wouldn't come on one day. Had the feeling it was the switch (had been giving problems iiRC). So Iran wires from the battery to the headlights and turn them on by twisting them together! I'm sick of it and miss using the buttons behind the low/high beam switch (same switch). Therefore would need to basically cut a few wires I guess, wire up another switch to alternate between high/low. It's such a ridiculous system. I'd sooner swim through a lake of hungry gators then pull my steering wheel. 1992 Lumina 3.1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White93z34 Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 The highbeam switch is further down the column and is actuated by a rod from the turn signal lever. there is a small metal plate covering it, held down with a couple screws IIRC. Pull that off and you can get at the switch. I don't think you'd have to pull the wheel, might have to lower the column down some though.

'92 Lumina...What air bag? "Automatic" seat belts took care of that legal requirement. Who decided that loading explosive devices into the passenger compartment was a good idea?
