Since I started driving this car, I've experienced an intermittent problem that somehow involves the headlights, turn signals and engine ignition.

1) The headlights won't go to high beams. I just replaced the headlight relay, thinking it was bad, but no high beams still.

2) When I turn on the headlights, sometimes, not all the time, the engine misfires and runs very rough. If I turn the headlights off and leave the parking lights on, no misfire.

3) The turn signals are erratic. They will flash at different rates. Last night I pulled over in a parking lot because the car was running so rough. I left the right turn signal on for a minute and it stared flashing faster and faster, until it was almost a strobe light. I could hear a relay on the fuse block buzzing because it was working so fast.

What is happening here???
