Hello
I am new to this forum
I recently purchased a 2006 Sebring Limited Convertible. Tonight while driving with headlights in the auto position my headlights and dash lights went out. I pulled on the headlight stock (like I was engaging high beams) and the high beams would stay on as long as I held it. If I let go they would go out. I did this 2-3 times, same results then the headlights and dash lights came on as normal at that point I was home (thank goodness)! Any input would be greatly appreciated, Iwas unable to finf a relevant open thread. Thank you in advance.

 

It sounds like it could be the headlight switch.

Thank you
you would be referring to the dashboard switch and not the steering column stock

 

I was thinking stock but I assumed that's where your light switch was.

 

I didnt know that they had auto lights. Mine has DLR function. Is it a new shape sebring ?
There are a few switches on Ebay around $40.00

 

“Auto “ mode which essentially means the same, headlights are on when car is started

 

My apologies to anyone who has read or replied to this question.
I have had the flu ( not Covid, seasonal) and have not been dealing with this or driving for the last 10 days.
much better now 😄
