Check for a coin in the cigarette lighter port, they fit perfectly (especially a dime or penny).

SOURCE: CHEVY 1500 TRUCK HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF WHEN YOU TURN ON SWITCH

If you have replaced the switch, and it is still doing it it sounds like you definately have a short somewhere in your wiring. On the other hand if the dimmer is in the turn signal arm ( forward bright back dim ) the problem could also be there in the dimmer switch, such as a short being caused by that dimmer switch being faulty.Auto Zone and Discount Auto Parts both test a lot of your electrical problems for free, and/or may have some knowledge to more accurately pin point the problem. Not sure about Pep Boys or some of the other discount auto part chains.

SOURCE: turn signal relay switch, 94 s10 chevy blazer

The Turn signal relay on a 94 s10 blazer is located under the cluster area right behind the panel that holds the parking brake release handle you will see it once a couple of trim panels get remove it will be to the right side of the brake release handle

SOURCE: 2001 chevy silverado 1500 headlights wont shut off

You will have to have the dealer reset the security light to restart vehicle.Check all engine and chassie grounds because this is where the lighting would exit the vehicle.It sounds like a ground burnt through.

I don't have a wiring diagram but as I recall it has a fuse for each headlight 10amp, a headlight relay and it has to have a good high low beam switch to function as well as a good headlight switch. Good luck

1990 Honda Accord The Dash Gauges, Instrument Panel, Power Window and Automatic Seat Belts are not working

Check your fuses and relays first. The radio fuse also controls the seat belt shoulder harnesses, dash clock, and lighter. Check all your fuses and replace any blown ones. There is a fuse panel in your engine bay and one on the driver's side under the dash near your door

1990 chevy silverado no running lights no dash lights

If the fuses are good, I would check for power in and out of the headlight switch. The parking lights and dash lights are on two different circuits but controlled by the headlight switch.

My headlights have quit working on my 1994 Chevy 1500 pickup. I replaced the headlight switch but they still don't work. The parking lights come on but not the headlights

Try checking both a; your fuses, and b; check your bulbs. You should have two fuse boxes, one under hood and one in or under the dash. Check those for bad, blown or weak fuses. And check your headlights bulbs for them being good and their connection. If this doesn't fix your problem, you may check out your highbeam switch.
