Electrical Problems (Headlights & Turn Signals)

Hey guys,

Got two problems. The first is that my lights go up fine but won't come dowm. I've checked the isolation relay, clicking on and off fine, and both headlight relays, also clicking on and off fine, and now i'm totally lost!! They'll go up and stay up, but when u turn the lights off they just stay there - they won't come down at all. Motors are fine and shutting off at the top where they should so no gear problems yet!

Second problem is that my turn signals and marker lights work fine, but the right turn signals are a lot faster than the left, and when the marker lights are on with the left turn signal it doesn't flash at all, with the right on it slows down A LOT!! Is it the decrepit relay in the dash that causes this problem? Need help!!!

Regards

Knight

Yeah i have similar probs with my indicators and when i put the brakes on, my head lights come on. Awesome prob to have... havent found the dodgy ground that i think may be causing the prob.
