Headlight Issue - Brights Always On?

Hi everyone,

Had a bit of a headlight problem develop over the last few days on my '04 Z4. The car is equipped with the OEM xenons (factory install, not retrofit).

Yesterday, I had the standard beams on and noticed an occasional "strobe light" type of action, as the car was cycling to the high beams without me touching it. Later in the evening, turned on my lights and they appear to be stuck with the high beams permanently on, without the stalk moved forward. Moving the stalk does not change high or low.

I'm leaning towards a faulty stalk since the lights turn on from the switch, lights successfully ignite, both projected in low beam (when they were not stuck), and both are projecting in high beams currently.

Anyone have this issue before? How did you resolve it?
