Hello friends,

I seem to have a weird problem with my electrical system: every once in a
while I find myself driving without headlights at night (even though the
headlight switch is turned on).
I think this doesn't happen in the middle of a drive, but rather after
starting the van. I've noticed that the electric windows don't work either,
as well as other circuits I can't recall right now.
Also, pulling the headlight lever turns on the high beams, but releasing it
turns them off immediately (just like when the ignition is turned off).
I checked for a blown fuse but found non. Then, I started juggling the fuses
and relays on the fuse box and somehow the light turned back on. I actually
think I had to turn the ignition switch off to reset the problem.
I tried tracing the electrical diagrams but didn't seem to find a common
source for these problems (fuse/relay/switch).
Before I waste more time on this, can someone point me in the right
direction? I've got a gut feeling it's one of the the ignition switch
contacts (but why then did the motor keep running? maybe it's because the
ignition switch is comprised of three different circuits), but since it's a
rarely repeating problem I'll have to wait for another occurence...

Thanks,
Amnon
