I yanked on the high beam stawk to get those going. I let go for a second to confirm that the headlights weren't going to come on by themselves. I then used the manual switch to turn everything back on. Tried this again at home. Everything goes off when you hit the button twice.

That's pretty funny. Maybe you "should" pull that manual out one day
2003Silvyrado: There wasn't anything in that e-mail that really required a reply and the past "conversation" was going nowhere and being twisted anyway. I just go into detail in the other thread that you posted in. This way the details are accurate
