Multi-Function Switch?
I seem to have a problem with the low headlight beams. A couple of times they have not turned on even though the doors are opening properly. Switch it to high beams and they work fine, back to the low beams and nothing. Has anyone had a problem with this switch? Any trouble changing it?
Thanks

First time that I have heard of this. I think that I would check to see if the bulbs were getting power first. Then I'd be looking at the manual and the schematic to see what might be going on. You may have a fuse burnt out or a relay that's defective.

The high and low beams are on separate circuits so it makes sense that one could work but the other has failed.. Try a voltage tester on the connector at the headlight end. As said, it could be both bulbs out at the same time or a fuze.
Best of luck with the fix.
