Headlight flashers!

Post by Laurie »

My Dehler has one irritating fault. To go from dip to main beam, you have to pull the switch. The first pull turns the headlights OFF and the second turns them to either dip or main. I have the electrical skills of a mollusc.
Any ides. Switch (brown) or relay?
