Headlights flashing....again

OK...Help me out. It looks as though July '04 is the time for most all '98 Aurora's headlight systems to crash. j/k Thumpin455, I tried your suggestions...by the way, kudos on the instructions. Drove the car to work this a.m., only to find the battery DOA when I was ready to come home. No biggie, got a jump, and pulled the LCM to get home. I'm probably going to try cleaning the switch again as you instructed, and hopefully that will work. I noticed in one posting that someone talked about pulling a gray wire out of one of the LCM harness connections? Anybody know anything about this? Better yet...is there a way to do away w/ the LCM, as this module is only for the sentinel light function isn't it? Is it possible to pull the module and splice a couple of wires, and use the headlight switch in a manual function? I hate to mess too much, as I don't need a fried Aurora. Any instruction on removing the turn signal/headlight switch? Maybe I could do a more thorough job cleaning it w/ it removed. Any feedback would be greatly valued!
