Just purchased my first E30 (320i 1989)

When my headlights are on, any movement while driving will cause the full beam lights to come on and off, and sometimes stay on!

Seems like the idicator stick which the full beam is located on is worn inside, a very light touch with cause the full beam to come on!

Has anyone else had a similar problem?
Is it a case of replacing the whole stick, or can it be repaired ?

Any help much appreciated!
:D
