BRIGHTS COME ON WHEN USING EITHER TURN SIGNAL. SOMETIMES IN COLD WEATHER THE BRIGHTS COME ON WITHOUT TOUCHING TURN SIGNAL LEVER.
AFTER A FEW MINUTES OF DRIVING THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS WILL TURN OFF AND CANNOT BE TURNED BACK ON. HIGH BEAMS WILL WORK, BUT LOW BEAMS CEASE TO OPERATE WITHOUT WARNING. PROBLEM OCCURS RANDOMLY, OPERATING FINE ONE DAY AND TURNING OFF WITHOUT WARNING AT OTHER UNPREDICTABLE TIME FRAME.
WHEN USING THE TURN SIGNAL, THE VEHICLE'S HIGH BEAMS MAY TURN ON WITHOUT INTENT. THIS COULD POTENTIALLY BLIND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY, IN MOTION, AND TURNING. COLD WEATHER AMPLIFIES THE ISSUE. THE ISSUE IS DEMONSTRATED IN THIS YOUTUBE VIDEO: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=36SCDPLZ3DK
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEAD LIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE AND THE WIRES UNDER THE HOOD STARTED TO EMIT SMOKE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUSE BOX NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. NO REPAIRS WERE MADE TO THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.
