Lights Switch

[GemInI]

Any of you had a problem with your lights switching off when you use your right blinker? It's happened to me a couple times now. Seems when you pull up on the turn signal, you can accidently turn the switch off for the lights. One night I didn't notice I did it till I was almost home. Lets just say I drive on well lit roads.

No, but I have turned on the wipers when grabbing the shifter when I 1st got the truck.

I have done it several times. It usually happens when I flick the high beam on. I hate the set up.

I've done it several times, too.

Gotta be careful at night. Something like that will give the cops a good reason to pull you over.

I have had this happen several times it seems like the detents are very weak I hope the come up with a fix because I like to leave my headlights on auto but I can't trust the damn switch

sounds like you guys are wrapping your whole hand around the control stalk to dim your lights or signal. I just use a fingertip or 2 right on the end of the stalk, my left hand never has to leave the wheel.
I find the headlight and foglight switches to be just right, no problem with them getting accidently turned on or off.

I have done both and I too have driven with the lights off for about a mile or so. The shifter deal is somewhat annoying, but just takes more practice. My wife thought I was crazy when I did it (the light deal). She thought I was going back to my high school days when I used to do it to scare her.

Actually...I do it the same was as you. Flick it up with my fingertips. You guys think there is a way to tighten this?
