I have been mucking about with my main fusebox by the RHS of engine bay.

 

When i turn on the lights i just get the LHS headlight (as you look at the car) working with both the main and full beam on no matter the indicator stork setting. After poking around i have spotted that i think i have pulled out the wire that goes to the 15A fuse for the RHS lights. Looking at the manual this headlight also controls the dipped beam so makes sense that this is on.

 

could someone quickly have a look at what colour the wire is that goes into this fuse and even where it follows through to because i cant seem to see it.

 

The way the lights are labelled the LHS headlight as you stand infront of the car is actually labelled RH headlight. But just give me the colours of all 4 wires and i will figure it out.

 

Bit of an emergency as i have an early trip tomorrow and it will be dark.

little help guys. Even if you can just pull the 15A fuse in the engine bay fuse box that is indicated "LH Headlamp" while the lights are on and see if the RH/passenger light goes off and and the drivers side lamp stays on with both the full and main beam on.

Sorry been working on my bathroom.

 

word doc attached showing colours I hope.

 

Failing that you want page 29 of the EL section of the online manual.

 

Hope this helps and isn't to late.

 

Good luck with it.

Thanks Darrell.

 

as an update the missing wire going to the fuse was a permenant live like its neighbour for the other headlight so i crossed this live over so both fuses were served. this didnt have any effect and i am not sure this fuse ever was in use as it did not make a difference and i could find the wire that went in there.

 

I think now it might be the relay for that side that i blew when fiddling around somehow.

 

I have read threads where people have had problems with their lights and it is suggested to swap the 2 headlight relays over but the RH and LH relay are completely different. One is black and one is brown and they have different block patterns so they cant be swapped. The one is suspect of being broken (the "LH" brown one) doesnt click or get hot like the other one.

 

I dont have any spare relays so i will have to source one and try that out but does anyone have any other ideas what it could be???

 

I can hardwire a power supply to the bulbs through the 15A fuse to the headlight for my journey tomorrow and remove the full beam connector in the working headlight.
