Default Are my high beams broke?

Ok, the interior controls are a little more intricate than my Mustang was.
I can't get the high beams on. The arrows on the stalk appear to give instruction common to most vehicles today; pull stalk toward you to activate high beams, push forward to return to low beams.
But when I pull back, there is just mild resistance, no 'click', no high beams.
Think they're broke?

You might need a dimmer switch.

The actual switch is located on the steering column above the kick panel. Pulling the turn signal level pushes a rod that connects to the switch. If you remove the kick panel you'll see it.

Could be broke, mine is on my '93.

It's not like the Hondas. You pull back until it clicks for on, and back again until it clicks for off.

There is no flash to pass option either.
