Weaponxr Donating Members 624 Member For: 13y 4m 9d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 13/06/12 03:34 PM Share Posted 13/06/12 03:34 PM I have got a problem with my car and I was wondering if anyone has encountered this before. When I try and turn my parkers or headlights on, I twist the switch on the arm like we all do but nothing comes on, no instrument lights on the dash, no parkers, or no head lights. If I twist the stick back to put it on 'Auto' the lights all come on (when its dark outside). I can also pull the stick back to use the high beams it will turn the high beams on, but when I push the stick forward to lock the high beams on, then nothing. I am thinking it could be a fuse or a relay?? Just thought I would pick peoples brain first here as I havnt had a chance to look at the car and wont until I get back from overseas.

I could understand if it was just one of them. Ok I guess when I get back I will have to take it apart and see what I find Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
