Headlight issues with my semi

[Todd B]

I took my semi  my out of the shed (for the second time this year) to park next to the highway for sale.  Brought it in at dusk and I noticed my headlights are not working. When I pull the light switch out the first click there’s nothing. The second click the parking lights come on.  Is the switch shot?

Did you push back forth? Maybe knock a non conductive bug out of the way?....

I did not. I’ll try tomorrow. Thanks for the info.

Did you try the dimmer switch......???

[Todd B]

I did try the dinner. Nothing changed

did you forget to fill your headlight fluid again?

The last time I had headlight probs, I ended up unplugging and plugging in every bullet terminal at the headlight and dimmer switches...that scuffed off any excessive corrosion and I was illuminated once again

I had similar problems with my headlight switch this last year. I ended up taking it apart and cleaning all the contacts. Worked fine after that treatment. Fairly easy job on the original type switch.

Hth, Jeff

I pushed it in and out half dozen times and everything works fine. I think Tim nailed it.

 Thanks

Good luck with the switch and the sale! Is it an original setup? Or modernized

Mostly original, I added the stainless wheel simulators and radial tires. All new sheet metal and wood floor on trailer
