headlight switch

My headlights were flickering off and on and it was suggested to me to replace the headlight switch. I did and now I have NO lights. The plunger / lever doesn't seem to be making any kind of connection -

Any advice welcome -- tired of carpooling!!

Yes....dimmers are notorious for lighting problems.

You might consider the relay upgrade to stop having to replace switches ?

Try holding the button on the switch down and then puh the rod back in, it has to be engaged for the lights to work.
