When you pull the light switch out one step, do any lights come on at all? Also, I'm moving this post to the 80 - 96 Bronco Tech Support section. How to is for procedural posts.

when i first bought the bronc they did come on then when i thought the switch went out i changed it and it worked for awhile but then a few weeks ago nothing but still had headlights so im stuck

Even though the head lights and other lights are on the same switch, they get power from different sources. the head lights are hot directly from the battery via a fusable link, fuse 4 operates the marker lights, parking lights and license lights, that is why I asked if any other lights work. Fuse 8 operates the dome lights, glove compartment, digital clock, and engine compartment lights. Do any of these work?

yes they work with the toggle switch. i ended up running an old heavy duty extension cord to run a toggle switch but yes they all work with that
