any electrical gurus out there?

So I noticed a couple of months ago that my DRLs weren't always coming on but since I typically drive with my headlight switch on, I never completely cared. The other day I noticed a low-beam headlight out (drivers side) so I changed it (yes I was very careful not to touch the bulb or let it get dirty during install) but this morning I discovered it out again. I should meantion that both times the high beam worked. Also, a couple of times now I saw my battery/alt light flicker for about a second and then goes out. Maybe I'll drop in a diesel - less electrical to irritate me

have a look at the combination switch (headlight switch stalk), they are common problems, usually resulting in one headlight/high beam to go out intermitantly.

And for your DRL check the module it is to the left of the battery kinda inside the fender, you'll see what I mean. Take it apart, chances are you will find a bunch of broken solder joints if you look carefully. If you don't want to or have the means to solder it together you can get new ones at the dealer. Not sure on price though.
