I think you should on the high beams but I am not positive. You will probably just have to chase these down one at a time. Maybe M.B.Doc has some other ideas on some of these.
After some research I got the brights to faintly blink a couple of times by 'vigorously exercising' the stalk back and forth which leads me to believe the combo switch is bad. Tommorrow while replacing the evap temp sensor I'll spray some contact cleaner into the switch to see if it helps. Thanks guys for the suggestions.
