Thanks to all of you who have responded! I've ordered (2) new starter switches, (1 for a spare), a new horn contact ring, and also the headlight relay. My headlights have always been quite dim, so hopefully the relay will help with that as well. I'll let you all know how I make out, but for now it's daylight driving only. All my best, Bob A '86 GL Massachusetts

Hello All, I need some help! I'm trying to figure out why, all of a sudden while driving along, my headlights go out, my wipers stop (it was raining) and my rear heater blower stops. I pulled over and tried the high beams and they came on, as did the wipers and blower. As long as I hold onto the high beam turn signal switch, then everything works, when I let go everything shuts off. Also, sometimes the horn will toot when turning the steering wheel. Has anyone experienced this before? Thanks and Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, Bob A '86 GL Massachusetts
