Re: ae86 high beam / indicator stalk problem
Thu, 29 April 2004 03:20
I've had similar problems (still have), with my highbeams only working when the stalk is pulled back towards the driver.
I believe it's a problem with the relay in the steering column. If you take of the steering wheel and the plasic casing around the column, you can easily see the stalk mechanism and the relay. I'm lead to believe that the connections need to be resoldered, but since I don't have a soldering iron, I haven't been able to test that out.
Lastly, there was a thread on here ages ago (if you search for highbeam or headlights you should be able to find it) that raises the possiblity of fitting the parts from an AE82.
If you do resolder the connections, let me know how it goes.
