Headlights problem #1

Right head lamp failed.

Turn Signal Switch problem #2

Head light dimmer switch/turn signal switch. After head light's have been running for a few minute's, the head light's will begin to flash on/off in either high beams or low beams. I have found the issue to be in the the high beam switch itself. If this had happened on a busy street or in a location where people were crossing the road it could have been very bad. Research showed this to be a very common issue and should be changed. There is even a harness for sale that rout's power around this switch and through a relay setup to correct this issue. I'm sure Ford should be fixing this issue before someone get's hurt, due to inability to see. . .
