Default 1990 ZR1 Head Lights stuck on High Beams

My 90 ZR1 has head lights that work fine but will not switch to low beams. Any suggestions?

I have no experience with your specific situation. However, if it happened to me, I would start with headlight relay (above passenger side knee bolster) followed by head light switch stalk.

Try changing from hi to low with the tilt in different positions , it could be the rod that goes to the switch or the switch under the dash on the column

Had this exact same situation happen to me over the weekend - 90 ZR1. Turned the headlights on and they were on high beams and wouldn't switch to low. Had the dash apart to fix some minor stuff prior to and hadn't had the headlights on since. Will try the above suggestions and post what I do to get it back to functioning properly.

I zip tied some cables to the steering column. The result was the same problem you are having. I could select high beam, but not back to low.
