THORNTON Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Hi! All of a sudden both of my headlights don't come on anymore, the side lights work and so does the full beam but nothing happens when i put the headlights on and I've checked the fuses and there okay. I've got the fog lights so i can still drive at night but unluckily my M.O.T expired today so i need to get this fixed fast, so has anyone's got any ideas? please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluliz Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 are the filaments shot on the bulbs? It could be the wiper stalks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 you can get a relay from the scrappy for near to nothing mate. Bluiz is spot on, red relay for the 6 speed wipers and the orange is for the rear wiper......i know as i have them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Escort4x4 is gonna sell you a 6 sped wiper stalk and an orange relay, for the 6 speed stalks you need the red relay. He might just have made a mistake!! But maybe this would be a better set as that clearly is the red relay. clicky There is also a guide for fitting the stalks and the relay in the walkthrough section!
