The headlight switch is the driver's control for turning the headlights on and off. Signs it may need replacing include headlights that won't come on, flicker, or work only intermittently, and a switch that feels loose or won't hold its position. Wiring, bulbs, or circuit protection can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the circuit before you replace the switch.
