Default Electrical help: Car keeps the high beams powered

The car is giving power to the high beam wire 100% of the time now when it shouldnt be.

the high beam dash light goes on when i turn the lights on. if i flick the highs on and off the dash high beam lights intensity will go up a tiny bit and down(with the on and off action) but it still stays lit and the high beam line keeps getting full power.

all fuses are fine. has my stalk f00ked up or what?

Try swapping out your combination switch with a known working one and diagnose from there.

just an update (for those who might be searching for answers).

something with my hid setup was acting up in the foggy/wet conditions causing the bi solonoid to stay open.

all is fine now.

im going to add some diodes to the positive wires for the lights and high solonoid so no voltage can leak back.

my "Stalk" is just fine .
