    That sounds like it is a problem with the combination switch, not the headlight switch itself - you do have headlights when the switch is set to the headlights on position right...

    yea. i get head lights as normal, what im meaning is take the stalk switch off and then redo the solder in that ... by the theory it should fix it ... because it did used to work sometimes when you flick it forward for the high beam.

    yea take it out and solder all of the contact points, and then add some electrical contact grease on the rear disc part were the contact is made, I did that and haven't had a problem since
