Front left headlight low beam isnt working?

Postby BR14AN » Tue May 03, 2011 2:10 pm

Hey guys,

So here is the back story.
I did have HIDs but have put back the stock bulbs (did this a couple weeks ago).
Today I noticed the front right headlight (lowbeam) isnt working?
I checked the fuse box in the engine bay under fuse 17, it is fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I have checked the bulb, i put it in the other headlight socket and worked fine, so its not the bulb.

Sorry the title is wrong its the right side, not left.

I dont think so. All my incidents to do with lights and fuses are from the central fuse box.

I found the problem,
I was looking at fuses 16/17 when in actuality the fuses are 18/19.
Just a broken fuse, so its fixed now haha silly me!

You probably dis not fit some thing properly.

Use a volt meter and check for power and trace it back.
