This happened to my '95 Impala SS. You have to replace the hi/lo beam switch (dimmer switch). But you have to lower the steering column. It's not that hard. Remember to deactivate your airbag before you do it.

Anymore questions, hit me up.

Yup, it's the hi/lo beam switch that clicks.

It costs like $15 at the dealer. How much are they going to charge you?

It took me like one hour or less to do.

If they changed the dimmer switch all they had to do was drop the column but you don't have to remove the steering wheel. Man 183 is a rip off to replace a $15 part. That's why I never go to dealerships.

it was a hi beam switch...im pretty sure it was that..i dont care tho, its done. :cheesy: the part was $30 bucks tho, and labor $150 :uh:
