my headlights won't flip down or turn off no matter what i do. does anyone know where i should start looking to fix it?

 

Will the headlights flip down using the switch on the dash? If so, then my guess would be that it is a problem with the multi-switch. Find a copy of the body electric manual and start looking through it to trace the wiring.

 

the switch doesn't do anything anymore. i tried playing with it but it didn't do anything to the lights. lights just say up and on even when the car is off
