Default Headlight Problems

Hey Everybody,

Problem:
Year ago? Switched on high beams, complete darkness (low beams don't work at the same time I've come to find out).
Solution:
Don't turn on high beams.

Problem:
2 weeks ago? Turned/pulled on light switch... no lights at all.
Solution:
New light switch. Worked (happy). Lasted ...one day? Stopped (sad/p'd off/furious!).

Can it maybe be the High beam/turn signal/wiper lever?

I have checked fuses.
After a small tantrum, they came on this morning.
I checked them after work... they worked. But on the way home I checked them on the reflection of a car in front of me... didn't work.

I am frustrated as heck.

Will someone please direct me to a site or any suggestions.

I will greatly appreciate it.

just make sure the wiring block is snug and tight.

but the switches are a poor design and they do have a warranty as long as you have the receipt
