Adding relays for the headlights and then using some good quality
contact spray on the hi/lo switch may resurrect it in case that is
really the problem.
My switch had intermittent problems with flashing in one direction when
I bought the car in 2000. Using a good contact spray fixed that, and it
still works fine. I installed the relays to reduce the current through
both the hi/lo switch and the main light switch. Really cheap and simple
insurance against burning these switches out.
