headlight problems, can anyone help

just bought a 95 explorer and the headlights will only work when you pull back on the dimmer lever. if you push it forward for brights nothing, in the regular position nothing, pull back on it and they work, any suggestions. its hard to drive at night while holding back on this.

and is there an easy way to get a window up on a power window system if the motor is bad.
thanks for the help!

this probably indicated a burn our headlight switch, and/or a burn out multifunction switch. It is a common problem on older vehicles.
