Pull the headlight switch relay and see if it's stuck. It's in the fuse box under the hood.

Re: Hate electrical

Re: Engine Stalling During Idle
Just take the air filter hose off leave everything else on and use a rag and sea foam to wipe out the inside off the throttle body.Make sure the flap is clean and closes freely.
