The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.

  • Headlight fail on driver side

    My wife has a 2008 NB and the headlight stopped working on the drivers side.

    No parker, main or high beam.

    I had a new headlight put in on the passenger side a few months back as #3 son clipped it and broke the lens in a driving lesson.
    99% sure all was OK when we got it back

    Passenger side works.

    Fuses are fine - but you aint going to blow 3 fuses.

    Ideas??

    The plug on the rear of the lamp is crap..seen this before..the plug is held onto a mount plate and you push the headlamp back into the plug to make the connection...remove the headlamp and refit it nice and tight back in then try... sometimes works..if not you might need to mod it a bit to make better contact...headlamps can be a bugger to remove... VDUB...
