Default Headlight stalk problems

High beams won't stay on, normally you feel a click and the high beam indicator stays on.

Highbeam indicator/idiot light comes on when engaging and the high beams come on but go off when I let go of the stalk.

Hoping this is common easy fix

There are links on how to try and fix the Multifuction switch. They provide how to access it so you could just replace it if needed. A new one is about $125.

Here is a link that may provide you some info, if not let us know:
