#1: Help with lights needed please Author: L18LTM, Location: ScunthorpePosted: Sun Jul 10, 2011 4:35 am ---- My 180 is getting sold on friday, last night I got pulled by police for having a light out, so I went to change the bulb, and it was working fine, but I changed it anyway. Worked fine when I texted it. Today, driving to work, the light was out again ? I checked the bulb and it was fine. Bassically my dipped beam works when it feels like it. Any ideas on this ?
I think it could be a loose earth connection ?
Has anybody elce had this problem before ?
Thanks for the help in advance

Disconnect and clean the contacts with a small screwdriver. Make sure all lights are off before you do it though

clean all the connections for the lights with contact cleaner or similar and push them all tightly together should be fine then
