My highbeams switch in my S13 is too sensitive. If I turn in my blinkers the high beams turn on. Last night I must have bumped my blinker switch when I got out of the car and, my high beams are weird the headlights don't flip up when you turn just the highbeams on, so the high beams stayed on all night and drained the battery. Is there a fuse or something? I don't need the high beams and the switch is too sensitive so I just want to remove them so I don't ruin my batteries.

Wow, how high were you when you typed this, lol.

But on a serious note. Get a new or used known good stalk (headlight switch), and replace. And dont know about you but my cars only have 1 battery per car. If the lights are flipping up, then you need a new flip switch too ( thats the one to the left of the steering wheel by the cluster).
