Your screwed! I had the same problem then after about a week no headlight/runing lights PERIOD! Read my 22r/re swap haha. The harness was bad, I think, so I swapped to an efi harness thinking I could just efi swap, then I find out I CAN'T! I don't know what to tell you... Have a car electrical guru look at it! ha sorry I hate to see people go through the same stuff I had too.

It was a dirty switch, I cleaned the light switch in the stering wheel column. and now it works with no problems. Thanks, to all who gave feed back.
