I have an 87 Accord that when I turn on the headlights, sometimes the
high beams come on (not at full power but a little dimmer). When I
drive, the high beams kick out and the low beams come on and vice
versa. I have checked the combo switch and it works fine but can't
seem to fix the problem. The pigtails going to the headlights have
been replaced as well.

Follow the wires back further from the headlamps. Pop-up lamps can
cause worn spots in the wires, and loose grounds. bob
