Head lights went out, then came back?
#11
All of the juice runs through the switch which apparently isn't designed to handle it very well. I installed relays on both the low and high beams and just use the headlight switch to turn them on. All high current now goes through the relays. I gained quite a bit of headlight output as well and my switch stays cool.
I used these sites for info and supplies and built my own harnesses.

I had same prob with my 94 and the dodge parts guy said the new switch was updated, but he just says what he is told. I changed switch and plug. no more prob yet! but i think but i may be wrong that there is already a relay on each light at fender. corect me if im wrong. if not ading a relay would be a huge upgrade. and very cheap and easy. and if your switch goes out you can manualy turn on if need be.
