Thread: 2005 defender head ligths not working

I had same drama
Turned out being a stuffed relay behind instrument cluster
It's the relay that turns headlight off when keys turned off

Take instrument cluster off and it's mount top left

Try that first

A few of us have had the same problem , the switches work but only just from new , they get hot and melt you can play around with them to get them working again but new is the way to go from the uk off ebay . I remember when mine went It was only a new switch , and I thought It was the Relay behind the dash , there not standard they have two extra pins , you can fit a normal relay but you loose a function , for the life of me I can't remember what It was , I'd check the switch first !!.. let us know how you go , and good luck .
