headlight gone, not ballast, not bulb, not ignitor box. help?

[fletch8]

spenty this afternoon trying to fix my headlight.

went out about a week ago and today was the day to fix it.

Ive tried switching parts over from the working one to the other, and still one wont light. Ive changed all the working parts from one headlight that works (bulb, ballast, ignitor) over to the side that doesnt, and still nothing!


argghhh

anyone any ideas?

now ive just put all the headlights back together and swapped the entire units over and one works on one side, but swap it to the other side (the broken side) and it doesnt work.

any thoughts ?

please

is the headlights work on the other side surply its a wiring issue?

Fuse, each dipped xenon is individually fused - 15A iirc

looked at the fuses next to the glovebox and all seem fine?

I'd try swapping fuses just to double check - mines looked fine when i took it out, but when replaced with spare the dipped came on

I changed the 2 between the light that worked and the one that didn't and nothing changed

in that case it sound like you've got some wiring issues, where the connector from the car loom goes into the back of the headlight, it it was me i would get my hands on a multimeter and see whats coming off the loom - that said if it required rewiring id be out my depth to advise, so would seek advice from an autospark
