Re: wires melting, what is this switch?
that switch does not belong to that car.
thats a high beam switch from a older style car.
I would start by tracing the wires and finding out what the po did and why.

Re: wires melting, what is this switch?
the wires apperantly go to the lheadligth switch or at least thats where the current is drawn from for the switch. The high beam switch on the stterring colum is broke maybe this switch was rewired for the high beam switch no way of knowing since the switch does nothing when clicked on. Im also havign a problem with my headlights they seem to work off and on periodically, anyone know where i can locate the relay, i've checked all the fuses and they all are all good, please help i need my headlight i can only drive during the day lol
