Problems With R32 Gts-t Lights

[polishboi]

Hey guys i got a r32 gts-t . it seems to have a problem with the lights when i turn the nob to turn the lights on the parkers seem to work as soon as i go to low beam at times only my right hand side works and at other times both work when switched on. i checked the fuses and replaced the globes on both sides as i thort that was the problem how ever it didnt fix it. I suspect its the relay how ever i aint certain can some one else thats had this problem or that would know if its the relay to be certain or anything else

Thanks!

shagged switch. one of the pins is corroded - there was a fix somewhere on the forums a long time ago - might be worth a search.

hey, im having the same problem with the lights on my 32 altho i think i know what it is. its the internals of the knob switch that are not triggering the lights to come on. try jiggling the knob a little and see if they both turn on, it works for me. someday ill get round to getting it looked at, its just the terminals inside the switch arent always making contact when u turn the knob.

cheers

I had the same problem...but i got it fixed..its basically the switch is playing up...theres 3 contacts insides the switch..as u turn it pushes a slide thing down inside to push down on the contact...nissan has 1 switch/contact for each light...thats why u at times get 1 light working n the others do or both die or both works...wat i did was basically take the switch out..open it up carefully n use some contact cleaners n sand it a bit with fine sandpaper...once thats done..i joined the 2 wires for the headlights power together on the connector..so as soon as i switch it on...both light comes on (EVEN if one of the contact isnt really work properly) hope this help...sorry for poor description..PM me if not sure
