so i have been having issues with my headlamp switch not working when it is in the on position or running light position, if i turn it inbetween the of and running the running light work. same with the on position and the running light position. could it be the headlamp switch or is it the voltage reg in the back of the gauges? or could it be part of the problem with the IRCM i am having, cause it all happened at the same time. buzzer behind the dash, headlamp switch malfunctioning, and no fuel pump.

IRCM and the IVR (instrument voltage regulator on back of the cluster have absolutely nothing to do with the headlight switch or circuits. Sounds like the headlight switch is bad.
It sounds like you have a ground problem causing the buzzing relays.

ok so i have checked the switch and connector and they are fine nor burnt wires or connector. so i asume that the headlight switch is bad and needs to be replaced. now the question is where to get one i have looked and cant find one anywhere. now what?

You can ask the members who happen to have parts cars if they have a good one. Put it in the want to buy section.

Sterling. I have a parts car. I haven't checked the switch but I assume it is ok. If you give me an address I could send it to you if you pay the shipping.
