Guys,
While nn on` of my 450 mile trips „` St Lo4as I had a prob<`m. I ` out of nashville and it near sundown. I turn on the head lights to b "ldgal
I h`t a pot hole in the rob and nricdd m radio and clock were going from day brightness and back to head light on brightness. I also heard a clicking of the head light switch.
I am about 1/3 the way to my destination and decided I should be able to find a parts store in Clarksville, TN - home of Ft Campbell and the 101st Airborne. I find a big box parts store at twilight with only my parking light on. I go in and they happen to have one on stock.
I spend the next hour changing out the switch, lucky for me the parts guy told me to press the button to release the handle.
I got the switch back together and headlights are working. My only problem is my headlight delay off feature does not work. I may of unplugged it while doing the work. I will check my manuals now that I am back. Anyone have any tips on the delay module?
So in the past 2 weeks I changed the headlight switch and the ignition switch. My recommendation is to anyone with a late 80s XJ if you do one do both while you have the dash apart.
