VT Berlina S1
Okay so heres whats happening.

On a trip to Melbourne from Adelaide i had something fall from the back of a truck and smack into the front of my VT Berlina. After that i had one dull headlight, bright parkers, one highbeam and headlights turning off when high beams are on. I took it to auto electrician and they replaced a fuse and everything worked fine.

That was on Tuesday.. today, Friday, i was back to the single headlight, funny highbeam problem. I noticed when i got out of my car to buy dinner that my headlights were still on (i always use the auto off feature where they just turn off when i open the door), i turned the switch off but the lights stayed on. a bit of playing around and flicking the highbeam stalk turned the lights off. A few attempts told me that it wasn't just a once off and it won't go away, seems the headlights only turn off when they want to by playing with the highbeam stalk.

Im lead to believe my problem is caused by the highbeam/lowbeam switch in the steering assembly, is this correct?

Please advise.
