Default Odd headlight issue. The switch so nice it lets you turn it twice.

First and foremost the headlights function flawlessly. They turn on, pop up, dash lights dim. No issues.

The weird thing is... I have to turn the switch twice before they pop up.

Turn the switch once. The headlights turn on in their housings, no movement.

Turn the switch off, and back on, the headlights open like normal.

I searched around in the FAQ and with the googles to no avail.

I don't even know where to start.

Nope. 100% factory.

Fixed: As embracing as this is... It was loose battery terminals.
