Hi,
Can someone help me with a problem please.
I have changed both high and low headlights,for the hid with ballasts,been on the car for above 12 mths,with no problems.
Then over the past couple of weeks,the left nearside headlight low beam as been comeing on intermitantly.ie switch on lights no left hand one,switch on again and it comes on,and stays on.
Then after a few days the same side as failed to come on.
i have replaced the ballast and bulb, fuses (under bonnet by the battery)and still no joy.
So it seems it could be in the loom unless there is any other fuses that i have missed.
Any ideas cry.gif

It can't be a fuse unless it's loose.Sounds more like a connector or bad earth as you state that the fault is intermittent.Check for dirt,rust etc around your earth points.

Hi,Have already done that,but just been and tried again,by changeing the lead from the low beam ballast with the high beam it works ,so defo the ballast has gone.just didnt know that they were differant connecter leads on the low and high .
