When you Push the high Beams there saposed to stay on Hi beams , and when you pull them there a little brighter but they obviously wont stay .. you must have a wire somewhere wired wrong with your lgihts thats the only thing it can be

Sounds like a short in the multi-function switch. If it pulls too much current, it'll kick the breaker which will self-reset later. Or if it's bad it may break the circuit shut the lights off and pull zero curent.

Hey my car Does the exact same thing. When you push the stick foward to keep the HB's on it shuts off all the lights, But when you pull it back the brights come on.I have the same problem But it drives me nuts also, I just dont use my Brights until I really need to, then I just hold the handle back.

yea same, im just gonna use my driving and fog lights, it looks cool anyway, since there the yellow fogs and smoke headlights, nowhere around here reall requires BH's, cept my own street of course cuz we have no street lights, but i know the street and my other lights will be fine, so screw it

its either time for a new multifunction switch, as one of the pins and whatever connected to it could be burnt, or the harness is melted....or both...

I have a problem with my fog lights, when I turn them on, they (and all the other lights) stay on, but after a while, they will all go off (except lights inside). Then after 5-25 sec, they come on again. There is no large bump or anything like that I go over when this happens. Needless to say I don't use my fogs much/ever. Anyclue...fuse?

sounds like the circuit breaker is tripping and then resetting itself after a few seconds. you need to check the wiring for a frayed wire or something else causing a short circuit which is tripping the circuit breaker.

bingo.pretty common for the connectors to melt or even the switch.
if connectors look ok and pins arent burnt or anything it sounds like multi function switch itself.
