dinger657 0 Posted April 19, 2005 how will i know if the switch is gone apart from getting another? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted April 19, 2005 Do you have a replacement loom for the headlights? There maybe an in-line fuse on there which has blown... Mine is around the battery area. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dinger657 0 Posted April 19, 2005 tried that as well still no joy! looks like daytime driving for me! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted April 19, 2005 Have you taken the fuses out and cleaned/reseated them - they tend to get a bit of surface rust from being in the engine bay... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roger Blassberg 0 Posted April 20, 2005 Maybe something to do with the dim/dip ballast resistor down behind the battery. Yellow wires and connector. Best wishes RB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dinger657 0 Posted April 20, 2005 cleaned all fuses, dim dip resistor not connected as im using an uprated loom, all been working fine for about a year and now nothing only thing to try is the switch! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ben16v 0 Posted April 20, 2005 fuse on the loom???? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted April 20, 2005 this happened to me , firstly check the inline fuse on the loom near the relays , then get someone to switch the lights on and listen for the relay to click no click either bad connection or as in my case the relay is blown ( they do this if they get wet and the contacts corrode for future ref if it is that , i got a length of bike inner tube slid it over the relays and fuses and tie wrapped it ...keeps it dry Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
