Subject:Re: High Beam Blue Light Inoperative

Are the high beams working and only the indicator light is not? The
indicator light is connected with eh left side high beam. If the high beam
is working and the indicator is not, than most likely the indicator bulb
itself is burned out. It may also be the Wiring or plug to the instrument
cluster. If the high beams are not working or the left side is not working
you need to check fuses. If none of the high beams are working and the low
beams are, you may have a bad dimmer switch, ( the common name for the high
beam switch).

�
I had the high beam switch replaced last summer on my '87 westie.�
Afterward, the high beams worked great, and the blue indicator light
functioned just fine.� Slowly over time it began working intermittently, and
now not at all.� Any ideas what to look for?� I don't want to return it just
yet to the mechanic and pay shop time because it was working and now feels
like it could be "something else"!� Madeline
