High beams not working Options

[cbuehling]

I have some high beam issues on my 74 2.0L I have not been able to figure out... when I push/pull the turn signal switch I can hear the relay click on first engage but the switch doesn't click into the high beam position nor does the high beam signal light in the dash turn on, nor do the high beams turn on.

I've checked the relay, it seems to work fine, cables should be connected correctly as it used to work in this setup. Regular headlights / fog lights work fine, one thing to note is as soon as the key is turned my headlights are on w/o them being up (never looked into that more closely)

Also, when I use the turn signal switch to go left on first engage I always hear some relay click, but the turn signals always work fine.

I've also thought about the possibility that maybe my high beams are always on and I just can't turn them off, they do seem a bit brighter than what I remember from before.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot, Clemens.

Relay can go bad and still click.

Relay can go bad and still click.

That's totally possible, my check was purely based on checking resistance which seemed pretty low around 15ohm, and a click when I put 12v on the other two connectors.

Something like this should do it, right: http://www.ebay.com/itm/USED-ORIGINAL-GENU...253&vxp=mtr
