Re: high beams wont shut off and hid?

high beams can be held hign by a pinched wire.. or the switch itself can "lock" on.

Mine got locked on high...I hope were on the same page..but john_p is probably talking about the high/low switch, which can go bad. You can replace it, and it's located at the base of your column...
