For some reason, whenever I turn on my head lights, the right headlight goes out and the rear right turn signal stays on (I mean it doesn't blink. It just stays on) I tried to mess with the signal and it doesn't do anything other than stay on, plus, the AC stops working. If I turn off the headlights and put on my hazards (Turn signals does not blink simultaneously, like it suppose to), the vacuum gauge reads below 20, it used to stay around 22 or 23. I've check every fuse there is on my car and it seems fine, no broken circuts or anything. Does anyone know what the problem is? Thanks.
Turn on headlights - Right headlight goes out, rear turn signal remains on, AC/heater does not work, and vacuum meter drops.
Turn on parking lights - Both signals work, AC/heater unit works, and using any turn signal, vacuum meter drops.
Off headlights - When idling, turn on hazard lights, vacuum gauge changes from 22 to 17. When using any turn signals, vacuum meter drops.

have you replaced the combo switch? the one that turns on headlights. there was a recall for melting wires that caused headlights to burn out.
