Anyone have a wiring schematic for the headlight/multiswitch?

I do not have dash lights, fog lights, or rear lights - only headlights and a few CF members suggested it could be a bad multi-switch (the switch that controls headlights and cruise control). Before I take the car to the dealer for expensive diagnostics I thought I would give it a try on my own - if I can get a copy of the wiring harness or at least some guidance from the CF.

Thanks

If it is the switch, do you have any other manuals/instructions that you could e-mail that would help with the disassembly/reinstallation of a new switch? I can send my regular e-mail if that makes it any easier.

thanks again for the help!

Yep. Replacing the multi-function switch corrected the issue. All of the electrical was checked for any kind of problems first, and when nothing was found went ahead and changed out the switch. Worked great.
