I have a 1982 GMC 4 wheel drive 3/4 ton pickup and the front headlights just quit. All I can think of is to replace the headlight switch. Does this sound like the problem to you? Thanks. notapromike

chek fuses and relays, check for a burnt harness and check the dimmer switch, if it's floor mounted unplug it and see if the headlights come on , if they do replace the switch.

check the voltage at the breaker for the headlights in fuse panel.turn the lights on and check the voltage at the headlight bulb connecter.you can use a test light to do this simple testing.this is where u should start before pulling the swicth.
