They can be rebuilt. A forum member names SOBill used to do it. Haven't seen him on the forum lately though.
He did mine a couple of years ago. Turned out to be a broken spring and a burnt contact. He rebuilt the whole switch and had it bak to me in about a week.
Husker, SOBill Taylor can be reached by email,
sobill@aol.com
He can repair the switch, if it is repairable.
He repaired mine but said not all are repairable.
Bill is a great asset to the community.

Russ,
If just the high beams don't work, check for power at fuses #1 & 2. If that checks ok, then it's either the headlight bulbs or the wiring / connectors between the fuse panel and the headlights. Left and right high beams are fused separately. Low beams are also fused separately...total of four fuses (#1,2,5,6) for the headlights.
If you have no lights, check the headlight switch.
You can also make voltage checks at the molex type connector for the hi/lo beam switch.

Husker,
I just noticed my highbeams out (went to Reidsville Friday night gathering).
What is the solution? I'm pretty sure its my turnsignal stalk switch.
