    Headlights not working on series 3 after spark

    Thanks I'll have a look in the morning , I've already switched the bullet connectors from the black red (no power) to the blue white in front of the radiator and headlights did come on when I put full beam on but this surely only confirms that the black/ red wire doesn't however power to it ...

    Just realised that won't work because power feed only goes to white/blue when full beams are on

    Ok the blue/white wire that feeds the full beam is live , can I split the blue/white so that it also feeds the headlights , I'm assuming that will work? You only ever use full beam when headlights are on anyway

    Just had another look I think bridging the wires just put full beam on so that doesn't solved the issue , would 1 bulb going stop both headlights working , the full beam/headlights are on one bulb , getting frustrated now , I can check bulbs , any advice on how to check the switch

    I've just removed the steering column (I've had a new indicator stalk about 18 months ago ) I notice that if I touch the two blue wires at the top of the stalk everything works correctly , 1 is blue and 1 is blue/red does that mean a new stalk or should these wires be connected somewhere else ...

    Yeah I'll have a proper look tommorow in the hrs daylight that we seem to be getting recently , to be honest there are two wires that should be taped off and aren't , I think they were for spotlights and they may have hit one of the many spanners and nuts and bolts rolling around , there...

    Just had had another look and realised full beam comes on on one of the lights when sidelights are on but if you switch to headlights on (and they don't come on )and pull full beam then full beam comes on on both ?
