Right Dipped headlight not working

Post by madmatt2002 »

Hi All
Have an issue with the RHS dipped headlight not working. LHS is fine. Bulb checked and OK(actually replaced with new just in case). Fuse checked and OK, Voltage checked at fusebox and 0V getting to fuse 39.
Can you kind peeps show me where to start looking for earth point for this, or any common area to look for/wires to check on the plug on the back of the headlight unit.
TIA
Matt

Have just noticed the headlight is on even when the switch is in the off position. It turns off when switching to dsidelights. This leads me to think it’s the switch at fault?

If it were a fault of the light switch, it would be the two low beam bulbs that would not work, right?

With the light switch at 0 what is on are the DRLs in the low beam bulbs. (0.5 yellow wire [33] in the first diagram of the previous post).
