Standard Ignition Headlight Switch P/N:HLS-1226
Standard Motor Products
Standard Ignition HLS-1172 headlight switch for the 1992-1999 BMW 318i and other vehicles controls the headlight circuit. It connects through a rectangular female connector with 10 male pin terminals.
A headlight that flickers, cuts out or stays dark may trace back to a worn switch, though bulbs, fuses and wiring also affect headlights. With the engine off, look the connector over for loose, corroded or discolored pins before replacing anything.
