Look on the switch's inside the steering cowling. Corrosion is a pretty common fault with these switches, if so clean the connections. Also check that all the earths are good!

I found 9 out of 10 switches just need the connections cleaning!

The common to main and dip not working is the light switch. Seperate fuses for left and right, main and dip so either all four fuses gone, or the earth on both sides all unlikely to happen at once
