Electrical problem no. 2
What could be draining my battery when the vehicle is not running? I
noticed the dome stays on constantly. I can jump start it and it runs.
But last night when I turned off the engine, then shut the headlights
off, the head lights started to come back on, but very dimly. I know
it sounds like a ghost story, but could a bad head light switch be my
culprit. By the way, it is an 86 XJ.
Thanks,
Greg

When I turn the head lights on, the dome goes off, when I turn off the
head lights, the dome goes on. Bad switch?
