1300 Left hand switch block or in particular the headlight switch itself . . . For a 2008 model

Hi
Do you mind if I ask why you need one.
My light switch appears to have gone on the blink and I was wondering if it is common and if anyone has attempted a fix.
I got pretty adept at fixing Ford power window switches and i was thinking of having a go.

Btw they are 73usd from Partzilla in the states plus shipping.

My headlights, neither high or low beams, were not turning on when starting/running bike, however the headlight flasher worked. So I pulled the switch apart and cleaned the points, which did not appear corroded or dirty anyway. Then gave it a good spray of WD40, reassembled and it worked fine.  A week later after no use, same problem, I'll next investigate and probably replace relays to see if that might solve the problem.

I just thought I would see if anyone out there had a spare switch assembly lying around, the STealer price for a complete assembly in Oz is $114.

It may be dirty contacts in the start switch

Thanks Brock, worth a look. I am guessing that would stop power getting to the headlight relay? Which means the passing switch would be using a different relay?

Passing switch puts power directly to the high beam relay if I remember correctly, but doesnt get the power from the aera of the starter switch.
