99 F250

Lost headlights on 99 F250 Powerstroke. Replaced headlight switch and did not solve problem. Think it might be in the turn signal/bright switch on column.

I can turn brights on by pulling back on switch.

Any one with any experience with this issue.

Thanks much
Ron

gotta figure out where the voltage stops. I'd assume that the new switch is good, so somewhere behind that is where the voltage stops. check to see the resistance between before the turn signal switch and after the headlight switch (gotta disconnect the battery for this). If it's significantly more than zero resistance with the switches turned on, then I'd say it's that switch. More work than you were looking for I'm sure, but it'll tell you what's up.
