Post by dazerede » Fri Jan 30, 2015 6:33 pm

Noticed a problem with my lights the other day I took my dash out ages ago and had a tidy up with the wires and that and ever since I done that the main beam light stays on :/ if found the wire and put a switch on it but when the switch is on and I put the main beam leaver on and the blue light goes brighter on the dash :/

Anyone help also the interior light doesn't work no more :( also noticed three is only 1 wire going to the fuse from the main beam wire

Is the horn fuse blown? Mine brought main beam light on all the time. It only has one wire but the other side has a brass connector to the fuse next to it :thumbup:

The wire goes in one side of fuse and the other side is a bit of brass that joins to the fuse next to it, you can see it on the back of the fuse box.

Are you sure the fuse isn't blown and is getting contact on both sides?
