headlights will not go on

Hi, I have a 1995 Ford F150 pickup truck and I turn on my headlights by pulling out the switch but only the parking lights go on. I have to pull my high/low switch back and forth for my headlights to go on. When I switch to high beam the lights will turn off. When I move the lever to turn on the directional, either way, the lights go out. What do I have to replace? Is there a split ringed harness on the column that I need to replace and if so is it a dealer part?

Cool headlights will not go on

Sounds like you need to replace your multi-function switch (the turn siginals/hazards/high-low beam/wipers/washers) these ARE available in aftermarket, most larger chain parts stores either have them in stock or can get them overnight, cost around $65.00
