winter beater, dims won't come on

Anybody have an answer for this problem? Could use some help asap, being winter and dark most of the day. I turn the switch, and no dim head lights, just DRL. The fog lights and brights still work great.

Sorry, I forgot. I already checked the fuses, all good.

Either the low bulbs are burn out, or the stalk with the switch on it has gone bad. Probably the latter.

I would say headlight switch. Most of the time the highbeams still work if you pull down the handle, but that last click on it could be worn out. I've had to put one in my ex's J, and I've sold two to Jeffie in NJ over the last 3 months.

Yep the lever must be a little wore from turning the high beams on and off. My quick fix was to put a piece of folded up paper behind the lever. It works for now. Thanks for the help, Mike

Replace the stalk, my 02 is on it's second one and it needs to be replaced again. They must of had a defect in the production of the part.
