Angry Headlights and Cold

All of a sudden my headlights don't want to come on in extreme cold weather. If I let the engine and interior warm up they will.
What's up with that?
Any ideas?

I would suspect the headlight switch, check for power out of it when you have the problem. If thats not it then the multifunction switch.

Gotta love the nice weather we're having, LOL.

Well, I think we got that taken care of. Replaced switch and cleaned the contacts at the switch. I've taken this dash apart so many times I could do it blindfolded! Oh well, that's the price of fun!

Next time try a little WD-40 in the switch. Works great on contacts, which is one of the things it was meant for. Cleans, displaces moisture. I fixed my intermittant wipers with it.
