Rich69 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I have an 89, My headlights won't shut off - Ever!! Thought it was the headlight delay relay, replaced it, worked once and now have the same problem. I was thinking I I should try replacing the head light switch next? Any suggestions on trouble shooting or what might be causing it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gogmorgo Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 ^This. The switch is a common weak point in the headlight wiring. The connector tends to get hot, melt, and sometimes catches fire. If the switch is your problem, or even if it isn't, look into doing the headlight relay harness upgrade as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich69 Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 Is there a newer type of headlight which would fit the truck and draw less amps say Halogen or LED? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeep Driver Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Run the headlights on it's own harness, the headlight switch now only triggers the relays and the current does not run through the switch. Several threads on the harness.......search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
