Standard Ignition is a global manufacturer of original equipment ignition products and maintains complete quality control throughout manufacturing, from individual components to the finished switch. That work is backed by decades of research and development aimed at what technicians need.
Signs a headlight switch may need replacing: headlights that will not turn on, flicker or work only intermittently, or a switch that feels loose or does not operate smoothly. Other faults such as bulbs, wiring or fuses can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause first. If a failed switch is the cause, DS-156 replaces it.
