headlight problem


Recommended Posts

I am hoping someone can help me....

I have no hi beam on either headlight. When i operate the stalk, the blue light on the dash comes on for either flashing or full beam, but the hi beam on the actual lights does not come on. I have checked the fuses and bulbs and both are ok. I thought there might be a relay for hi beam but could not find anywhere on the documentation a note of a relay for the headlights and where it could be found.

A little history... the car had a battery charging fault a couple of weeks ago and the garage suggested it might be the battery. They replaced the battery first and then said it wasnt that and put the old battery back and replaced the alternator. That solved the charging problem. I cannot be sure when the headlight hi beam problem started but maybe be linked to the battery/alternator being replaced.

I would be very grateful if anyone could shed any light on what this might be or where i can find the heradlight relays (if they exist :-)

Happy xmas btw!

Not sure if you figured this out yet but if power is disconnected memory modules may lose their memory. The headlights have a memory control module located behind=d the passenger Air Bag. If this module loses its memory then it will need to be reprogrammed with a PST2. If you have the Durametric software you can read and reset the codes but do not think you can reprogram the module. Your most likely will need to take it to the shop unless you know someone with a PST2. Let us know if you find out otherwise. Good luck! B)
