guessing you still got the dim dip connected ?
think all you need to do is disconnect the resister |

if its the same as others it's a gold coloured thing about 2 inches long with fins on it riveted to a bracket and a wire out each end going to one plug , just unplug it

did it have dim dip fitted , did the headlights come on dim with the sidelights on (with ign on ) before
a few searches show it right under the wing half way between bottom of aerial and wing vent blank on o/s wing tucked up the top |

Hi munch90 no luck there definitely isn't a resistor fitted in that location, I can trace the wiring to and from the lights and they don't go to a resistor.
I'm not sure if the lights came on with the sidelights with the old lights. Not sure where that leaves me ? Thanks for the help. Cheers |

only other thing to look for is a headlight control unit , think its a pink relay in fuse box or in dash somewhere
part no YWC10050 ? resistor could be by brake master cyl looking at another forum |
