I had to sit there and think for a minute what you mean. The high/low beam switch under the dash on the steering column. Never thought of that being bad, but that could be it.
This is a good step, also when this is removed put a fuse back in and see if it blows. If it does you know the issue is on the inside of the cab, if it does not it is in the loom from the firewall to the headlights.
If the black out switch is bad you can test it, but kind of complex for me to...
Maybe someone will know, but a picture would help 1000 times to explain what you are talking about.

Yes it is in the 73-87 catalog; page 80 (page # may change with newer catalogs). Both single and dual headlights, for the CUCV it would be single 36-3580.
You should also look at the Headlight circuit sticky

I saw the picture before I read your comments and said to myself, wonder if he got that idea from may antenna mounting idea. I see you did and thanks for the tag, it has held up well. Taken my Suburban through many tree branches and held up well.
The M1009 is looking good, saw your post with...
:lol::driver: Funny!!
My intentions of installing a snorkel on my 1984 Suburban CUCV clone was not to drive through deep water, but to look really cool and keep water away from the intake when splashing mud puddles. It is very bad to hit water at a high rate of speed as it can fly into the...
Well it has been 1 year since I owned my 1984 Chevy Suburban CUCV clone and it has been a fun year. It is about 90% completed where the only part left is to paint the inside red to black and after that all done. Truck has held up well going off roading many times this year and during that time...
The problem is the bumper pintle hitch as it is weak and can rip off if the trailer is too heavy. There is not allot of strength to the system and they are prone to failure. It really is a poor design and could have been better.
This if from a M1009 that had the pintle ripped off due to a heavy...
Looks good with the new paint, camo was a great choice.
Do not recall about the issue with the rear window, if I would have known about it I likely would have tried to fix it. Glad you got it corrected and cleaned up the common rust area on the lower tail gate. I think I recall telling you...
I been on eBay since 1997 selling stuff and understand your frustration.
I can confirm that you do indeed have a service for your shipping as I have picked up from the mail store. The lady says you ship allot of stuff from there and pickups as well. I also had a few items shipped from you and...
Did we forget about this thread for "better" fitting belts?

I used the ones listed, but as noted they can be a task to install.
This is what is known as resurfacing the brake shoes/pads. I actually had this conversation with my mechanic Saturday about those "just" brake shops that say they will do it for $99 and in the end it is like $500. He explained to me that it takes off the shinny surface of the brake material to...
I love that show and have seen every episode and watch every new one. They are true car guys as they buy junk and make it run and drive it home. They break down and fix it and keep going. I think the only car that had to be towed was the Rotsun.
Anyway. I have a medium tow bar and almost made...
The second fuse is coming off the fuse panel under the dash supplying the 12v to the system. I thin on the diagram on the door it is not marked as fused, but I believe it is lead 25 and E2 to ignition switch. Power is activated from the fuse panel when the key is on and mine was fused with the...
-Should I remove the mechanical pump? Would I need a block off plate?
Yes remove it, Chevy 350 V8 block off plate from any auto parts store. Unfortunately it is chrome.
-Should I remove the pushrod? and use the old pump as a block off plate
Yes, you have to remove it it you block it off...
