Hi all....here's my two cents on the headlight problem. I was leaving work a few weeks back at midnight. I got in my Fastback and she started fine (as always) and I grabbed the headlight switch and the parking lights came on and I thought the headlights. I was wrong, I made it to the end of the parking lot and made the wonderful discovery that the headlights were not working. I grabbed the owner's manual and checked the fuses. The fuses were fine and I tried turning the headlight switch on and off to try and MAKE them come on. That didn't work. I finally switched off the ignition and re-started the car....guess what? They worked. That night it was around 10 degrees and I have since found out that if my ignition switch doesn't turn all the way it doesn't make contact with the light switch(?). It has done it since then and I turn the key slightly until they switch on. Hope this may help out. Type 3 dreams to all...... Larry D. Adkins 73 Fastback P.S.
