Dieselalhambra Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 Can anyone help. 1998 Seat alhambra. Problem is dipped beam in both headlights have stopped working. When i switch on at dasboard the side lights work, second position to put on dipped beam, lights do not come one. Main beam still comes on throught steering columb switch. Both dipped beams are not coming on. Is it a fuse or relay problem. Quote
Smilge Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 I thought exactly the same as you m8 ..... relay or fuse. Believe it or not the dipped beam filaments in the headlamp bulbs could have gone at the same time! Confused the hell out of me when it happened on my Mondeo. Quote
billywizzo Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 Same thing happened to the wifes focus.Went to go out one night and both headlights failed only side lights or main beam no dipped.Changed the bulbs and was sorted. Never known both bulbs to fail at the same time but it happened.Try new bulbs first. Quote
