My headlights won't turn on.

Has anyone had problems with thier headlights not turning on? The park lights work fine and I can flash the high beams and the interior lights go on but no head lights. Thanks.

This fixed it for me:

It appears to be a sticky contact in the headlight switch.

1996 - 2001 B5 A4 Long term fix for failing head light switch

The headlight switch will continue to overheat and stop working until this modification is installed. The relays installed will handle all of the headlight current that the light switch used to not handle to well at all.

I will attache a PDF of my drawing that I created and used to install the modification into my 1996 - 2001 B5 A4.
