Default So I'm driving home tonight

and was on a road with no street lights so I flip on the brights. Well I see some oncoming traffic and flip my brights off. Well when the brights go out so do my headlights, and now I'm driving down the road with no headlights. So I pull over and fiddle with the brights, turning them on and off and then my lights go back on. Anybody ever have this problem.

My ram with the foot switch did that to me a couple of times in the middle of Wyoming while towing the race car. It's a bit unnerving.

my brother-in-law thinks it might be a faulty dimmer switch
