Hey everyone,

Before I start, I spent the whole weekend cleaning/detailing my car. Oh my god, it looks brand new. I will take pics of it and show them to you guys. I also fixed the bumper :) She looks great. I just need to clean the leather a little bit more (Lexol didnt work that well).

Anyways, there a few problems related to my lighting. First of all, my right (passenger) headlight randomly goes on and off quite often now. At first it wasnt that often, but now it is. I think the relay is bad? Can anyone help me out here. How much is it? I know this was a problem for J's.

The second problem is that whenever I turn on my headlights, the interior headlights are off. When I say interior lights, I mean the lights on the radio and climate control and even then cluster with the speedometer and everything. However, when I turn the headlights off, they are on. Is this related to the headlight problem?

The third problem is that my gas light wont go on when the tank is empty or almost empty. Is the connection loose or the bulb? Fuse?

The last probelm is that my cigarette lighter wont work. When I tried hooking my cell phone charger in, it didnt work. When I tried using the lighter, it didnt work. Is the connection loose or something?

Please help me out here.

Thanks in advance.

Take care.

Later...

- Omar

i have the same cig. lighter problem on my Q. and according to the service record it had been replaced twice(maybe for the same reason?), so who ever was dealing with it had no clue what was going on either, just as do i

first problem is the relay...i think its like 40 bucks from joe at http://www.infinitipartsusa.com heres some info on how to fix it http://www.fuzzycats.com/docs/headlight_relay.pdf. 2nd problem could be a blown fuse...check all the fuses under the hood and mainly the ones by the parking brake. My cig lighter doesnt work either but i think its because the dumbasses that installed my cd player messed it up...maybe its just not connected.
