Headlights failed
Was driving at night and suddenly headlights stopped working--- stopped at garage and checked fuse --- all of them fine.. Had to drive back holding the lever in manual brights .Parking lights are working when sliding the small lever backwards, but in position 2 the headlight fail to work.

Anyone experience this and how did you fix it? Dealers are some 3 hours drive away.

opened the switch some melting evident-but it was still making contact Checked fuses in the CJB , all fine , swopped them out to make sure. Swopped the little black relay on the far right side under the coloured ones.
Still no lights when the switch is pressed to position 3 .

Am I missing something--is there any fuses in the BJB that controls the lighting circuit?
