Ok guys, you never have failed me yet, please help. Tonight my low beams would not come on. This happened while on the interstate so it wasn't very fun. Pulled into a parking lot off the interstate and fiddly f))ked with them for 30 minutes and they finally started working again. Any suggestions? Is this something I can repair or check?

Jmack,
You don't fix or repair it, you have to replace it. I haven't done it myself, but that multifunction switch has been discussed quite a few times and those that have got a new one from the dealer say it isn't hard to replace. A couple screws and wire connections is all it takes. You could probably find one at a re-cycling dealer (junk yard) but then you can't be sure if it's in good working order.

Thanks Crewzin, I think by the time this is over I will know how to replace every damned part on this car.
I might as well order it. I am going to take advantage of the warm weather today and install my new door lock switch, so while I got the torx out I might as well learn how to replace that.

So far my multifunction switch is doing OK but they can be a trouble spot. I have had them go out on Fords I have owned in the past (haven't had a problem so far with the ones on Cadillacs so far). I learned that if I try to always hold the switch by the stalk (rather than the end that rotates) when using the turn signals or the highlight dimmer the switches lasted MUCH longer. Just a thought.
