Please help.... I have a headlight and dashlight issue. I have recently lost the part of my dash lighting the odometer and shift indicator. My low beams do not come on sometimes and the remedy seams to be temporary. If I pull the highbeam lever this will sometimes get the lights to come on. But sometimes even if I manually try to put headlights on this does not work. I read about cleanimg the ground. I did this and it did not seem to fix it. I read it could be the DRL? or some kind of module? I can't work and I can"t afford $600.00 I heard it could cost at dealer. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! I am pretty bummed! .......

Welcome!
I'd say you have two separate issues here. The first being probably your multifunction switch being bad as stated previously, they aren't cheap but they are pretty easy to replace yourself. The second being that the instrument panel has an issue with either the LED board itself or the ribbon connection on the backside of the panel. I'd take it out and see if you can push it back in or fix the connection, otherwise you'll have to get a new LED board or whole panel and have the odometer reset.
