I have a 1999 TD5 Defender 90 with a very strange issue.
The side lights and full beams work but the main beams don't.
They do come on randomly but are now totally off for the last day or so.
I've checked everything I can.
The bulbs are good.
I chased the live cable from the bulbs back to the 2 fuses for left and right main beams. These are fine.
The earth for both bulb is fine as the full beams work.
Both fuses are fine.
I then checked the switch on the stalk. There is 12v entering it and sending it out over a blue cable. However no power seems to get to the fuses from here.
Is there something else I need to look at under the dash?
The relay for the lights should be fine. I swapped it with an identical relay for the indicators and still nothing.
If anyone knows what is going on here or has had a similar issue I'd really appreciate some help.
Thanks in advance.
