When you say flash do you mean they cut on and off? If so replace the Headlight Switch, that will take care of your problem. Good Luck.

Headlights go off at night cannot get them to go onat night often will work during day

I would pull the main headlight switch out and check it for burning, that is the most common issue for this type of problem with the headlights coming and going.

Headlights flashing at blinker speed

Flickering headlights can get you a ticket to the policeman's ball, but more importantly, they may indicate trouble inside your car. This problem can result from many potential causes, but whatever the reason, you must identify and address it before your lights go out altogether.

2002 Saturn, cannot turn off headlights unless I turn off the car. Headlights come on by themselves in the middle of the night and drain the battery. When I try to use the turn signals the bright lights...

It sounds like you have a short within your Headlight Switch.....It's kind of difficult to replace, because you have to disable the airbag system....But just take it to a shop an um quit sure they can do it with no problem......You can also try the relay first because its cheaper...But your problem may be your switch itself...Goodluck
