So far 3 have agreed. I would suggest that you relay your lights up once you have fixed it. That way you dont have full power to your lights, going through your switch. The switch becomes a trigger for the relay, and should never burn out again, because full power is now going directly to the lights through your relay.
But you allready know that, no doubt.

This sites assistance to those who need it is legendary, but we dont have xray vision, so all the data collected should be fed into properly diagnosing the fault.
Its pretty common for 80's to go through high beam combos, aswell as other quirky things like alternator plugs and vmx-m oil.
A mate had his alt reconditioned with reconditioning paint 3 times before the 4th auto leccy fixed it for free...I HATE THAT YEAH...one trip to outers would have saved him $600

Funny thing is, I didnt see anyone commit to anything. They were all just suggestions. My point then was that three people felt that it was probably the switch. So the simple point in all this is, check that first, then go from there. I didnt see anyone say go out and replace the switch or any other part. As Andrew said, there are many variables. The feeling I got from his question, and peoples answers was where to start looking, not what to replace.
