High/low Beam Switch problems of the 1997 Ford F-150

Regular lights will not come on unless high beams are turned on first. Dealer will be notified. The main head lights failed due to the switch failure of the highbeam switch.

1st, transmission, when at the speeds of 40 and 45, hesitates and wants to upshift and downshift, the behaivor is not normal at all, and I am making an appt. To get it fixed. 2nd, the high beam/ low beam switch must be faulty, at times the lights will totally shut off. 3rd when refeuling, usually on a quarter tank and less when taking off the gas cap there is alot of pressure built up in the tank. 4th the interior lights will sometimes come on when either door is opened, I have to shut the door and reopen it.
