problem #2

(twice within six months) a short in the steering column headlight switch wiring has resulted in the headlights becoming inopperative, so I had to drive at night with only the daytime running lights. Turning to the left causes the parking brake warning light to glow, and turning to the right causes the light to extinguish. This could be due to a loose wire? another electrical problem is that the left hand side of the dashboard lights no longer work.
