95707, High Beam light on dash fading on??? Posted by totaleclipse_05, Jan-13-06 02:12 PM
OK, I have no idea where to start to fix this problem. I was on my way to run some errands and it's dark so I have my lights on. I notice as I accelerate, my high beam light (blue light) on the dash (turns on to let you know when the high beams are on also) fades on and when I let off the accelerator, it goes away. I pulled over and shut off the car and turned off the lights. Pop the hood, nothing seems out of the oridinary. Close it, get back in the car and turn the lights on and the high beam light stays on. I flick the stick back to turn the high beams on and the highs come on and the light just stays on no matter if just the lows are on or the highs. I turn on the car and the light goes away until I accelerate again (kind of fades on with how hard I'm getting on the gas). In first gear, it almost lights up enough to make me think I had the highs on, but when I let off the gas, no light anymore.
Does anybody know what causes this?????? Or am I just going crazy and seeing things?? The car runs and idles perfectly fine, just this light keeps fading in and out.

haha kinda funny, its probably a ground problem somewhere or there is a cut in the cluster harness that moves the wire when you accelerate.
