    No headlights

    Just after some assistance,
    I was driving tonight and went to flick my high beams on and poof no headlights at all, only parking lights.
    I have an upgraded loom kit from traxide installed, so I would be quite ****ed off if it is the stalk switch.
    Obviously I have checked all fuses.
    I'm a bit stumped to be honest can't really think what it could be.

    Did you also check the fuses in the relay that Traxide supplied?
    Is there power getting to the above relay?


    The other thought is check the original headlamp relay in the dash fuse box.
    Mine will cut the headlamps out unless there is an ignition feed so worth investigating also.
    Cheers, Kyle

    Yeah all fuses are ok including the ones built into the relay unit. Will pull out multimeter tomorrow and look a bit closer, I wasn't aware there was another relay in the original headlight system will find that as well.
    Cheers

    Should be the right most relay in the cab/dash fuse box.

    Mine did that and it was the headlight switch on the column.

    IT wouldn't be the first time Ive see both high beam filaments out at the same time. or a filament out on one bulb and the high failed at the bulb/harness plug.

    a bad earth on the traxide relay would cause those symptoms.

    Most likely the headlight switch.
