Hello. My highbeams have recently gone out. My low beams work just fine. When I push the switch foward, (to turn them on), they dont come on and when you pull them back ( like you are flashing someone in front of you), they come on. Any suggestions on what would be causing this problem would be a great help. I have a 1994 Toyota Pickup 4-cylinder 2WD.

Thank you.

Sounds like this problem is nailed to the T

The switch grounds it to comlete its circuitry-No ground=No light and again it might be a relay going south of border to Belize- I love that secret place. Go there and you'll know what am talking about. Women!!!!! and TQ do mix together.
