electrical problem



electrical problems are simple, check the grounds for proper connection
(i.e. remove bolt use sandpaper on chassis to remove oxidation, apply
electrical goo, reinstall connection to chassis), then check your connectors
to your headlights, remove the pins on at a time and clean them, apply the
dielectric goo there also (prevent oxidation=bad contacts).

as for the headlights do the single light turn on when you press the switch
on the first step ? yes? press the high beam stick in that position do they
come on ? yes? no ?  maybe you problem is the headlight switch in the car .

some suggestions (looking at watch... gawd its early.!)
