Front sidelights only not working
Just noticed that my front sidelights (both sides) have stopped working. Rears are fine and work.

Have tried a search, but can anyone help? First thought is a fuse, but which one? If both side lights have stopped at once, are they not independent fuses? Has anyone else had this problem?

Cheers,

Fish.

they are sort of independent, left (front and back) are paired, right (front and back) are paired.

Have a look at the wiring diagram:

At the bottom click on workshop and then your model year range.

Edit: just refreshed my memory. The positive is shared front to back - so the fact that the tail lights are working rules out the switch and the fuses. The negative is also shared, but with the corresponding headlight. There is very little (apart from the fact they're in the same loom) that's shared by the front sidelights and them only. Are the bulbs definitely good?

Apologies, figured it was better off in the maintenance section but couldn't work out how to delete the TDCI one?
