Author: davieboy76, Location: scotlandPosted: Wed Mar 02, 2011 10:45 am ---- Ok av had a look at the fuses under the bonnet and fuse 5 was blown (10amp) all the other fuses were ok. I replaced this and the light still won't work ... Wil need to check the other fuses inside the car under the dash hmmm.... Any ideas ?
#11: Re: blown a fuse ? Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Wed Mar 02, 2011 11:31 am ---- Fuse 5 is a 10amp fuse for the ECU
Do you have a multimeter or test light? so that you can test if there is power going to the bulb?>
#12: Re: blown a fuse ? Author: davieboy76, Location: scotlandPosted: Wed Mar 02, 2011 11:35 am ---- No I don't have a multimeter or a test lamp Lee ... I wonder why the ecu fuse was blown ? Strange
#13: Re: blown a fuse ? Author: davieboy76, Location: scotlandPosted: Wed Mar 02, 2011 11:36 am ---- I have replaced the bulb aswell
#14: Re: blown a fuse ? Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Wed Mar 02, 2011 11:40 am ---- does the dipped beam work in the same headlamp? or is that not working as well as the main beam
#15: Re: blown a fuse ? Author: davieboy76, Location: scotlandPosted: Wed Mar 02, 2011 12:04 pm ---- The sidelight works and so does the main beam it's the dipped that's not working
