Headlight issue
My low beam have not been coming on when my tilt is up, but when I pull it down they will light. The high beams work and parking/fogs work with the tilt wheel in the up position. I normally keep my switch in the auto position but have also tried it in the manual and get the same.
I'm planning on checking the grounds, but I really think its a wire running to the low/high beam lever on the column. Would anyone know which/what color the wire is for the low beam side of the lever?

In my 2002 f350 4x4 the low beam wire is dark blue/orange and the high beam wire is grey/orange. Hopes this helps.

Remove the cover from the top of the steering column and I bet you will find the offending wire. It is a known issue that with alot of tilt wheel use, there are a couple of wires that will pull and rub and eventually break. Just cut the bad spot out and add a couple of inches of wire and you will be good to go.
