Re: NO Headlamp flash with lamps retracted! Help :-)

Had the same problem but I took my stalk off an then there is a small hole were you can see were the switch mechanism is working.
Two parts that’s makes contact.
Clean the contact surfaces and/ or take a smal strip of sandpaper fine grid and give the lead a touch. Then it’s ok again 👌🏻👌🏻
