Headlight switch problem fixed

FYI, the same fix (re-soldering a connection on the blade) worked to fix the missing high speed function of my windshield wipers.

The wiper switch internals are identical and so is the fault - the wire comes loose from the blade.

Before soldering, I separated the blades with a thick piece of cardboard and clamped a hemostat to the blade to act as a heat sink - didn't want to melt any plastic on the stalk.

Now I have all three functions - intermittent, low and high speed. Although "high speed" is really not that fast, it is better than low when battling our daily thunderstorms here in Florida.

I posted a thread on the fix in the DIY section.
