1982 GLT high beam out 200

posted by  someone claiming to be CB on  Sun Nov 25 14:51 CST 2012 [RELATED]

check out the Hi/Lo relay. It's on the rail behind the battery on the drivers side fender. Oblong Aluminum body....(when you use the hi/lo stalk you should hear a click from this relay)

It's just an electro-mechanical relay. Unplug it a check the contacts for corrosion.

The Alum cap comes off, there are tabs on the bottom. check the contacts inside for burns/corrosion. Use a super-fine grade (400 to 1000) Wet/Dry sand paper to polish them. With the cap off, replug it and use the stalk to click on the hi beams and watch the relay to see if the contacts are doing what they should.
