Hi Blythe

Does that mean that you can flash High Beam?

<span style="color:blue">its the switch....its propably burnt out...normal....

the contacts may have come loose...for which edd has some sort of solution.....</span>

Yes I can flash high beam, my old girl is a bit of a mish mash from the factory although it is a 94 with 94 running gear it has a 93 dash?? funny thing is it just didn't work one day, it didn't let go while the lights were switched on?

Is there any easy way to check if it is the switch that any of you know of?

I have also checked all the relays and they are all ok

thanks in advance for the help, Darwin is a very expensive place to get professional help, I do almost all work on the old girl myself.

Cheers Blythe

<span style="color:blue">remove the cowling to gain access to the switch.....
then (with the ignition on) turn on the lights and wiggle the wires at the back of the switch.....


see if you can make the lights come on.....
have you upgraded your globes by any chance....?</span>

Yeah I did upgrade the lights to those so called flash actic blue ones that cost the bloody earth, but ended up no better than the old ones, but that was about two years ago

With the cover off your steering colum try twisting the furthest blue wire to the left. that was the problem with mine. Took me ages to work out exactly what it was. The pin that the wire connects to seems to work loose.
Hope this helps.

edd has had the same problem on his......and also someone else had the same problem......</span>
