From memory there aren't any headlamp fuses on the facelift FL2. It uses a more integrated CJB (body control module) which has FET drive transistors which incorporate over current sensing.
What's the problem you have?

My daughter's Fiat 500, has an issue with the number plate bulb drive FET. It doesn't supply power to the number plate bulbs, and triggers a bulb failure warning as a result.
I linked the actual bulbs to the tail light circuit for MOT purposes, but the bulb failure remains on the dash.

Cars are getting too complicated these days.
 
Bulbs do go together, especially when they're fitted at the same time. Something to do with the current change when one blows causes the other one to go. Or similar.

Definitely check the bulbs. Those H9/11 type bulbs fail for a past time, and often very close to the same time. The FL2 pushes them hard, often sending almost 15 Volts to a 12 V rated bulb, which makes them fail quickly.
A life of just 150 hours isn't uncommon as they burn really hot inside the confines of the headlamp units.

You need to get off your high horse, if you actually click the link you have supplied this fred shows just below the "stickeyed" ones:confused:.

I am not sure what you are trying to do, Even I cant see any humour in your posts and I am considered warped in my humour sometimes.
